Here are a few more tips to make your blogging more fun and enjoyable:
RESPONDING TO ANOTHER PERSON'S POST:
If you have a question or a remark about someone else's post, you should comment ON THAT POST. If you start a new post on the same subject on your own blog, chances are others may not see it.
For example:
A blogger named The Whole Truth had a question for Elizabethishere. Instead of posting that question on The Whole Truth blog, that person should find the original post from Elizabethishere, and ask the question in the comments section. (sorry, WholeTruth, not trying to slam you.)
HOW TO FIND SOMEONE'S BLOG OR OLDER POST:
From the community front page, there's a link at the top of each section that says "See All [section] Blogs" -- for example, the news section says "See All News Blogs". Click on that, and you can see ALL blogs posted from newest to oldest.
Note there are PAGES at the top- you can advance to page 2, page 3, etc. from newest to oldest. Looking for a post from a couple of days ago? Keep advancing through the pages until you find it.
HOW TO KEEP TRACK OF SPECIFIC BLOGS:
Want to keep track of a specific blogger-- someone you love to read (or love to disagree with?)
(1)Click on their NAME, which brings you to their entire blog. Every post that person wrote will be here.
(2)Now scroll down and look for Blog Links on the right
(3)Click on either "Add to Favorites" or "Subscribe to this Blog via email." The first option will link that person to your My Favorite Blogs section (bottom right of your own blog). The second option will send you an email every time that person posts something.
