Me becoming a blogger
How to make our blog personalized and how to use what we learned
I learned many things of how to put a new post, what the sidebars do, what will some buttons do, etc. The most important thing we learned was making a good blog because if you just had text, it wouldn’t be as good, so you should put in pictures, bright colors, etc. One different device will change the blog different than other people’s blog. We learned to save our drafts so you can come back to it when you don’t have time. I also learned the difference of “View” and “HTML” when you are posting something; “HTML” is the address to the website, and “View” is how it shows on the actual blog.I would make the background color my favorite colors, write my personal feelings because my blog’s name is “Marina Myself”. At the beginning, we looked at other people’s blogs and commented on a google docs document, and we also did brainstorms to think about what we want to write in our blog.
The criteria I chose for my blog
I will choose “organized” because if you make your blog organized by categories, the blog would look neater and easier to find whatever you want to look at. It also helps to categorize pictures because you might have many pictures on your blog, so you can put them into categories like the places you went.
I also chose “contrast” because you need to make the colors like dark and light colors so the reader can read your blog easily. If you had a dark background and dark writing, the reader will have a hard time reading your blog.
I also chose “Links” because if you have links, you can put a document or a website when you think you have written too many things on one post. That way, you can make your blog look clean with many categories and links.
