A Fun Way to Start Blogging

I realise that there is an interest in members here wanting to start experimenting with blogs, so I summarise the steps that you need to do this on connect2change.org... Click on Read More link below in order to, well, read more of these instructions! The steps are simple; and I have a little surprise at the end that will demonstrate that the "steps" are also fun!

In order to get your personal blog going on C2C:

  1. Login to the site
  2. Scroll down till you can see the left hand column; there is a personalised navigation menu with your username at the top
  3. Click on Create and Publish
  4. Click on Blog Entry
  5. Enter your blog entry: it needs a title, a selection from the required tag list, and some text in the body of the entry.
  6. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Preview -- this will give you an idea of what your entry will look like
  7. Scroll down to edit the entry, and when you are satisfied, click SAVE at the bottom of the page
  8. Your entry will then be published and an automatic Tweet sent to Twitter on the C2C channel to tell the world that you have published a post.

What should you blog about? As long as the theme is health promotion, you are within the policies and aims of this site. You may even blog about some interesting findings on the Web, such as this video on a fun way of inducing behaviour change!
