I've added some tips for Blogging beginners. Click on "Read more!" below ...
How to read comments
Click on the "Comments" link below the post. It might say "2 Comments" to indicate the number of previous comments. These are remarks made by viewers and members of the blog who have thoughts on the topic raised.
How to make a comment
Click on the "Comments" link below the post. On the right, you will see a window "Leave your comment". Write the comment in there.
There are 3 options below. If you have a Blogger account, select the first button. You can enter your username and password and it will appear below the other comments with your ID attached. Or you can select Other and enter a name or alias (no need to create an ID). Or you can select Anonymous.
How to get a Blogger account
The aim of the Blogger.com site is to encourage people to create blogs (ie web-logs) of their own. This can be a bit confusing if all you want to do is add comments. But it's free and simple. Click on the Blogger link at the top left of the page (or go to www.blogger.com) and follow the instructions - it takes 5 minutes. You don't need to actually do anything with the resulting blog, and nobody can see your personal information.
How to become a member of Free the Teaching
Email kevin@caburn.eclipse.co.uk and Kevin will send you an invite. You need to follow the link (once only) and accept the invite. If you have a Blogger account already you can sign in, if not you have to create one (Sorry!) Then your Blogger ID (your alias) will appear on the front page of Free the Teaching, and you can make new posts of your own.
How to add a post
This is a tiny bit confusing. You need to visit www.Blogger.com (click on the Blogger link on the top right). Then you enter your username and password. Now you should see "At the Crossroads" and a + sign next to it with "New Post". Click on the + and away you go. You can delete or edit it if you don't like the results.
Email kevin@caburn.eclipse.co.uk if you have any problems.
