But for those who are interested in trying it out yourself - it took me all of 3 minutes to set this up. And then a bit of playing to get the photos, text and bits at the side.
If you have Google then follow this (if you have Yahoo, MSN or other system - just find the Blogging item when you are in your Account- it will be similar):
- Set up a Google account - you may already have one or click here to set one up
- Once in your Account, find the list of Google products and add Blogger to your products.
- Then just follow the instructions - 4 easy steps:-
- Create a Blog
- Give it a name (eg Graham and Cathy in New Zealand) you can edit anything you put here or elsewhere at any time by clicking on "Edit". You will get a URL (the thing that says www.?????) with your personal details - this is what you give out to people
- Choose a template - this is why some of you think it took me ages to set up - but you just choose a layout that you like and cheat.
- Create your first Post - type in a Title and some text and you can either "Publish" (which everyone can see) or "Save" and it creates a draft Post. You can publish this whenever you want. You can see a list of all your posts at any time when you go to Edit Posts - and surprise, surprise, you can edit any of them.
And there you have a blog.
I then just played around with the layout tab at the top of the page until I got what I wanted down the side panel.
