-
The
blog should open when you click the address on the front page
of the village web site.
-
The
main topics are on the left hand side in green.
-
Chose
the topic that interests you and click the comments tag
-
That
will take you to a new page with other people's comments on the left
and a frame on the right for you to leave your comment.
-
You
can type in your contribution directly, but I suggest that you
compile it in Word, or some other programme, where it can be easily
edited and spell checked.
-
You
can then copy {Control + C} it and
paste {Control + V} it into the blog
box.
-
You
then move down to "Choose an Identity" where you have four
options, but I should ignore the Open ID option for this site.
-
That
leaves you to select from Google / Blogger, Name /URL, or Anonymous.
-
If you
choose the first option you will have to enter your User Name and
Password which you obtained when you registered. Registration is
free and this option will let you include pictures or personal
information with your comment. (When I set up the blog initially
this was the only option, but it does restrict the access.)
-
If you
choose "Anonymous" your identity will not be known, but your
contribution will be devalued as any idiot can enter rubbish under
the guise of anonymity. Some people have
used this, then put their name in the text, which is a bit better
-
I hope
you will choose Name / URL and type your name into the
relevant box. Most people will ignore the optional URL box.
-
Click
the orange "PUBLISH YOUR COMMENT" box and, shortly afterwards, your
comment will be available for everyone to see.
