1. What is a blog? A blog is like your private journal. Use it to write about things which are important to you, or as a simple log of your day-to-day life. It's easy to add articles whenever you want, your latest post will always be at the top of your blog. You can even add photos, or allow readers to leave comments about what you have written
2. What's the difference between a blog and an album? There are two important differences between an album and a blog : - even if they both contain photos and text, writing will always be the most important part of a blog, and pictures the most important part of an album. Photos in a blog will always be smaller than in an album, and the text will always come first. If you want to write, go for a blog. If you are a frustrated photographer,an album is for you ! - a blog looks like a private journal, entries are arranged by date, with the latest posting first. The photos in an album can be put in any order.
3. Read blogs : Click on a blog title to read it in display mode You can view a blog in two ways: "Whole article with comments", which will show a single entry, with comments on each page; or as a list of entry titles, with or without comments. Just click on an entry title to read it, or comments connected to it, at any time. To change modes whilst reading a blog, just click on to change to "Listing" mode, on to change to "Detailled Listing" mode, or click on to change to "Whole article" mode, to see a complete entry.
