What's a blog?
 A
blog is your easy-to-use web site, where you can quickly post
thoughts, interact with people, and more. All for FREE.
Publish your thoughts
A blog gives you your own voice on the web. It's a place to
collect and share things that you find interesting— whether
it's your political commentary, a personal diary, or links
to web sites you want to remember. Many people use a blog
just to organize their own thoughts, while others command
influential, worldwide audiences of thousands. Professional
and amateur journalists use blogs to publish breaking news,
while personal journalers reveal inner thoughts. Whatever
you have to say, Blogger can help you say it.
Get feedback
The blogging experience is about not only putting your thoughts
on the web, but hearing back from and connecting with other
like-minded folks.
Group blogs (such as at Geary Baptist) can be
excellent communication tools for small teams, families, or
other groups. Give your group its own space on the web for
sharing news, links, and ideas.
And more...
Blogger has a variety of ways to easily update your blog besides
the easy-to-use web interface:
Email Posting means you can send a message to your
web site from your favorite email program, your wireless device,
or anything else that sends email.
BlogThis! is a button that you can put on your browser
(or via the Google Toolbar) that lets you quickly post to
your blog from anywhere on the web. Use it to quickly comment
on a news story or web site.
You can post photos to your blog with an add-on tool
called Hello. There's even a feature, called AudioBlogger,
that lets you call Blogger from any phone and leave a message
that is immediately posted to your site as an MP3 audio file.
(It's fun at parties.)
