How to create a Blog with Blogger

2 - Make your first post:

Preferably something meaningful, for instance:
say why you have chosen to do this unit of study
say something about yourself, about your pets or about your blogging habits or lack thereof

3 - Check your neighbour's blog and post a comment to their first post.

Commenting will be easier if the original post is meaningful rather than if it's just "hi, this is my first post".

Once everyone has a created a blog and made one post, keep your blog on the screen and open a new tab or browser window and go to www.netvibes.com
