Creating your blog is actually pretty easy.
The first thing you need to do is create a Google account if you don't already have one. Go to http://www.blogger.com/ and click on 'Get Started'. If you already have a Google account (or a Gmail account), log in using your account name and password on the right hand side of the screen.
If you need to create a Google account, you will find yourself at this page below. Fill out the details and submit.
The next step is actually create the blog. The first thing you need to do here is come up with a name! It could be as simple as 'Niki's Design Blog'...or feel free to be creative (but nothing rude or inappropriate please).
Next you need to select a basic startup template. Don't stress too much if you don't really like the ones on offer- you can customise the template or select an entirely new template later on.
Now that you have created your blog, spend some time customizing it to suit you. Your only requirements are that you leave the comments function enabled and allow others to subscribe to your blog. You can enable the latter by adding a 'subscribe to' gadget in the design section.
Finally, make a post!
After you have created your blog, please post the URL to your blog in the task forum on cLc. This way I can find it easily and subscribe to it, and so can your classmates.
