Commenting on other peoples blogs is a great way to share information to the world and let
them have an input into your posts as well as ask questions.

Thing 05 - Subscribe to blogs

This task consisted of uploading an opml file onto google reader.

I downloaded the BlogFeeds.opml file and uploaded by clicking on settings on the top right corner of the page, then the import/export tab at the top of the screen.

After that i browsed through some of the feeds this was easy to do because all of the feeds i had uploaded were on the left hand side bar.

Thing 04 - Create an RSS reader account

I created an accound with blogger.com which automatically registered me with google reader.

Here is a screenshot of my google reader home page.

Thing 03 - Create a blog and register it

This week i created my blog from my existing blog page and registered it.

I also sent an e-mail confirming this to the teacher.

I previously used www.blogger.com to make posts for classes in 2008 which helped me to better understand the subjects.
