The Agony


Yesterday I learned about creating a blog. It was very difficult finding a title and especially the address. I had to follow a few instructions into making one so that the result would be good, but it was very painful finding an address. Here were the instructions into make one. 

1. Create a gmail account, or you can log in if you have one already.

2. Click on the apps button and go down to "Blogger".

3. Create new blog.

4. You have to put an appropriate title and address.

5. Sometimes you have to verify your account.

6. After that, you're set.
