How To Post A Comment

Since our big book discussion starts tomorrow, I thought I would reveiw with everyone the procedure for posting a comment ... because I'd like everyone to join in our discussion!

So, here is the procedure and feel free to practice "commenting" after you have read the instructions. Your post could be as simple as: "This is a test of the commenting blog-o-sphere."

Okay, here we go.
  1. Click on the "comment" link. (Located at the bottom of each daily post.)
  2. "Choose a Username" This is the name you will use to "log in" everytime you post a comment. No one but you will see this name. (Write this down so you remember it.)
  3. "Enter a Password" Think up a password and enter it. (Write this down so you remember it.)
  4. "Display Name" This is the name that will show up everytime you post a comment. Many people use their first names. Others have "code" names. It's up to you.
  5. "Email Address" Enter your email address. This is not available to the public when you post.
  6. "Accept Terms" Click the "yes, I accept" box if you agree to the terms.
  7. "Continue" Click on the Continue arrow.
  8. When you get to this box, if you do not want to set up a blog of your own, simply close out of this window.
  9. Now, you can type in whatever comment you would like to leave on my blog.
  10. Enter your username (from step 2) and password (from step 3) and click on the "Publish and Login" button.

That's it. From now on, anytime you want to post a comment, you simply type it in, enter your username and password and "publish."

If you have any trouble, email me here and I'll try to troubleshoot with you. Looking forward to hearing from you!
