Blogger help

I am one who has tried to follow blogs in the past, but I could never remember the name of the blog or blog address to go back and find the same blog twice.  If you already know how to "save" blogs using your Google Apps, then this is not for you.  But, I was so impressed at the ease of this feature, that I thought I would share.

To save (and find) blogs again - and to even get an email when your favorite blog has been updated:

1) Be sure you are using Google and have a gmail account.
2) Open a new tab and look at the right-hand upper corner of your page to find the square made of 9 little squares. Click on it to see a drop-down menu.
3) Click on "MORE" at the bottom of the menu.
4) Find the app that says "BLOGGER" and click on it. This should bring you to a page that says Reading List - "Add". Click on Add
5) If you want to save this blog, copy and paste the URL address above into the space it gives you.  It should show up as a new blog on the side of your page.
6) Do the same for any other blog you want to save.  You can now go back to this app at any time and find the blogs you want to read, or add new ones.
7) As an added bonus, you can get email alerts when your favorite blogs have been update.

Let me know if this works for you or if you have any questions!
