2nd Post. (Jan. 24)
Hi. Hello. Howdy. Hola. Yo.
This is my second blog. For some reason, the link to this was not working a moment ago (I linked it to the blogspot account) but I think it is working now!?! Anyways, this is just a quick update/check to make sure that everything is working properly. I am now going to go do some Calculus and AP Macroeconomics for tomorrow...yay. Anddd, to everyone in my website design class who will probably read these posts...HEY!
Oh, and another thing I don't like about this site is that it doesn't automatically date each blog post! Sorry for the complaints--I have been spoiled by the blogspot settings.

FIRST BLOG!
Hello!
This here is my first blog.I already have a blogspot account that I have been using for a long time, but for my web design class, I have to compare two blog sites. Here are the questions that I was challenged to answer:
How easy was it to set up?
- It was very easy to set up. I just had to put a username, a password, and an email address.
How easy is it to add content?
- This is where I would answer "meh." It is apparent that if I want creative freedom, I need to purchase the better version of the blog. I cannot change background colors without going in to change the HMTL. Blogspot at least lets me have some freedom to choose the colors that I want. Also, I inserting pictures is more difficult because the picture does not "fit the frame" meaning that I can't crop/control it.
Are there annoying ads?
- No annoying adds, but it says that my blog isn't "complete" because I haven't bought the website to go with the blog. I DON'T WANT A WEBSITE! I DON'T WANT TO SPEND MONEY!
Can you add fun stuff, like pictures and sounds?
- Yes, I can add pictures, but they are difficult to control. Maybe after I experiment more I will figure out how to do that.
Can you add widgets?
Yes. I can add a photo gallery, files, audio, video, an embedded document, flash, google maps, flickr, and youtube.
Can you choose different layouts?
Yes, there are multiple layouts that are organized according to style!
Can you change the colors or the heading pictures?
I can change the font color and the heading pictures (to some extent because I can't crop/the picture looks weird). I cannot change the background colors =(
Is it easy to create and edit posts?
Yes, it is very easy! This website has a click and drag aspect. I click what I want at the top (picture, title with text, just text, title only, etc.) To save my post, I just click on the blank border of my blog and hit publish at the top. Then it asks me if I want to buy the better blog version. I click the X.
Ultimately, if you want a free, easy to use, creative blog, go with blogspot.
