01/07/11 Setting Up Your Blog

The Blog Begins!
Today we will set up your google accounts (if you don't have one yet) and your blog.  We will be using http://www.blogger.com.  The blog account you set up will be used only for class related items.  If you want a personal blog or a blog for any other reason, please set up a separate blog for that. 

Your blog name will need to include Latin I in it's name.  Set up your website name as follows:  FirstnameLastNameLatinI
and the name of your site as: Firstname Lastname's Latin I Blog

Once you have your blog set up you will need to go back to this page (Magister Warren's Latin I Blog) and friend me, and I will then friend you.  This will keep us both updated on new blogs.
