How to make a post

How do I make a post? What you need to do is first sign in to blogger by going to https://blogger.com/start. There will be place in the top right hand side that says “Sign in to Blogger” and another that says “Sign in to the Blogger in beta”. Pick the one that says “Sign in to Blogger” Then you’ll see a space where you can put your user name and password. If you have forgotten your user name and/or password then follow this weblink: http://www.blogger.com/forgot.g. This should give you a chance to receive an e-mail of your user name and password. After you have done this, you’ll be prompted to enter your google account information or create a google account. Once you’ve done this you’ll use this instead of your previous user name and password.

After you have done this you will always choose the “Sign in to the Blogger in beta” which is at the following website: https://beta.blogger.com/start. Once you’ve signed in you will be taken to the “Dashboard”. At this page you’ll see the USU SLPs of ’07 and underneath this there will be a green plus sign with a “New Post” next to it. That is where you’ll be able to post a message, post pictures, or whatever you would like (within reason).

Of course if you ever just want me to make a post for you, then email me at bobjbateman@gmail.com and I’ll make the post for you.

Going beta

The blog is now on the beta version of blogger. What does that mean? Well, there are some new features and... when you sign in you'll have to transfter over to the beta version, it will have you go through a little process. If you already have gmail account it will be easier. Overall it will be quick and painless. I assume some of us will be using this blog a lot more often. I took the blog off any listing so we should be okay to post things like phone numbers and stuff. I would still be cautious.
