How To Make A Blog for This Course
First, take a deep breath. This is not going to be that hard for most of you. Only about 10% of the people who do this meet massive frustration and at least half of them will be suffering the forgetting of their log-in info.
1. Keep this page up as one tab and open another tab for the following steps. You may find it hard to follow sequential directions. You may want to ask the teacher. You may want to ask a neighbor. But try to follow the written directions, which is a useful skill.

2. Create a google identity. Here. This will help you in life. If you don't already have one I suggest that you pick one that wouldn't be embarassing to a professor. So - BBallerFlyBoyYoMama might not be the best choice - even if it weren't already taken. Something like ASnyder is better. But don't use that one either. You can do something that isn't a gmail account using your existing email if you choose.
3. Create a blogger account. Please make sure that you use ONLY your first name and first initial of your last name. Please do not post any photos of yourself likely to fascinate stalkers. Please also include what section you're in. Feel free to make the title "Normal is Weird by (your first name and first initial of your surname)". For the address pick something "respectable." Do not link to anything that reveals personal information about yourself. Please select a color scheme with black letters and simple light pastel background (no pictures or shapes), that will be highly readable for the poor schmo who will be reading 96 of these at a time.
4. Click "view blog" and copy the URL (the webaddress at the top of the page).
5. Go to the UTFL Messageboard and IN THE CORRECT SECTION reply to the addresses thread to offer your address together with your first name and first initial of last name. If you find that your blog address has your last name in it please begin again with step 3. If you find that you have posted the link, and written your last name in the post, please repeat step 5, as the mistakenly forthright post will be deleted.
