How to follow other blogs- for Aunt Lori

Log into your blog

you should be on your dashboard


instead of clicking on new post to write on the blog, click on layout




once on the layout page,  you will see add a gadget- click on that




a pop up window will open up
scroll down until you see where it says blog list - it's about the 8-10th item down the list I'd say- click it

this will bring up another window that says configure your blog list



click on add a blog to your list

type in the URL- for instance the URL to my blog is



http://www.lifewithavalleyview.blogspot.com/



click add



then to add another listing such as dad's blog-

click on add to list and add in the URL to dads blog which is

http://the-old-curmudgeon.blogspot.com/



and keep repeating until you are done.



The URL to Rosie's blog is

http://beenthinkinboutthings.blogspot.com/



and Joanna's is

http://billyjo971.blogspot.com/



when done, click on save

You now should have the list of blogs saved.

go to your blog page and view it-  and you should now see the list of blogs on the right hand side of the page that you just added- when the people update the blogs, you will be able to see they have been updated right from your own page- it will say something like updated 6 hours ago or something like that.

Let me know if you get it to work!
