Linking to other posts
Commenting is good, but you cannot edit your comments, and usually people forget where they commented.
Another good way to respond to another blogger's post is to use the BlogThis! bookmarklet. To get this bookmarklet, you need to go to this page, and drag the BlogThis! button to the bookmarks section near the top of your browser window.
On your computer at home, or on a school computer where you are using your own account, you only need to do this once. Unfortunately, when you log in as "student", your information is lost each time, so you need to do this every week!
So that's our weekly routine. Come to class on time, open up Firefox with 3 tabs: gmail.com, blogger.com, and winkhome.org, and also open your Typing document in Word. Then COMMAND (APPLE)-click on the BlogThis! link in my Hot Links section to find the BlogThis! bookmarklet and add it to Firefox. Then you're ready for the typing test.
If you come in giri-giri, do the typing test first, then get Firefox ready.
I'll show you how to use the BlogThis! bookmarklet in the 2nd and 3rd weeks.
