WHAT IS A BLOG?

Posted by TeamRx On July 25, 2009

Blogs are usually (but not always) written by one person and are updated pretty regularly. Blogs are often (but not always) written on a particular topic - there are blogs on virtually any topic you can think of. From photography, to spirituality, to recipes, to personal diaries to hobbies - blogging has as many applications and varieties as you can imagine. Whole blog communities have sprung up around some of these topics putting people into contact with each other in relationships where they can learn, share ideas, make friends with and even do business with people with similar interests from around the world.

It turned out that Google’s timing was perfect, and Blogger’s hundreds of thousands of users quickly turned into millions. Google benefited from new access to millions of customers, and Blogger users benefited from a series of redesigns and upgrades to the software program that made it easier to use and added more functionality than ever. Those upgrades and redesigns would allow the new Blogger to retain its position as the leader in a market that was growing more and more competitive every day. The blogging platform that was once considered the “beginner’s tool” continues to attract new users at a staggering rate.

Blogger is too frequently unavailable. In the past, users complained that the Blogger software would “go down” too frequently, meaning that it was unavailable to users who wanted to update their blogs and to readers who wanted to read those blogs. Since Blogger has moved completely into the Google infrastructure, the system has become more stable and more reliable.

FORMATTING POSTS, TIMES, DATES, AND LANGUAGES

Posted by TeamRx On 10:43 PM
You should set several formatting configurations before you start writing and publishing blog posts, such as time, date, and language options. Select the Formatting tab from the Settings navigation bar to display the Formatting page.

Then follow these steps to configure how your blog posts are displayed to visitors:

1. Select the number of posts you want to display on your blog’s home page by choosing these options:

• From the Show drop-down menu, select Posts or Days to display a designated number of posts on your blog’s main page or a designated number of days’ worth of posts on your blog’s main page.

• In the Show box, enter the number of posts or days’ worth of posts you want to display on your blog’s main page based on the setting you selected from the Show drop-down menu.

The number of posts you show on your blog’s home page is entirely up to you, but remember that people don’t like to scroll too much. Displaying 5 to 10 posts (depending on post length) on your home page is a common target to keep your blog readable.

2. From the Date Header Format drop-down menu, select in which format you want the dates to appear on your blog.

This date appears at the top of your blog, above your posts, to remind visitors what day it is.

3. From the Archive Index Date Format drop-down menu, select the format of the dates used in the Archive Links page element on your blog’s sidebar.

Older posts are automatically archived so they’re easily accessible from the Archive Links page element in your blog’s sidebar. It’s up to you to decide how you want your archived posts to display in your sidebar. Choose the date format that you prefer by configuring the Archive Index
Date Format setting.

4. From the Timestamp Format drop-down menu, select the format you want to use for the publication date for your blog posts.

A timestamp appears at the bottom of each blog post that tells readers when each post was published. Changing the Timestamp Format alters how that date appears on each blog post.

5. Select your time zone from the Time Zone drop-down menu.

Selecting the correct time zone ensures that your date header and timestamps synchronize correctly to your location.

6. Select your language from the Language drop-down menu.

Blogger is available in a variety of languages. Make sure that you select the correct language for your blog.
