summary	Students in the freshman composition courses are encouraged to keep a writing journal through out the course to practice writing. An online blog motivates students to participate in journaling because it's fun and it is read by many people and not just the instructor. This handout instructs students on how to create a free online blog at Blogger.
details	A blog is a online web log and offers you instant communication power by letting you post your thoughts to the web whenever the urge strikes. The handout is a step by step guide to signing up for a free Blogger account and creating an online blog. Blogger is a web-based tool that helps you publish to the web instantly -- whenever the urge strikes. Blogger is the leading tool in the rapidly growing area of web publishing known as weblogs, or "blogs." A blog is a web page made up of usually short, frequently updated posts that are arranged chronologically—like a what's new page or a journal. The content and purposes of blogs varies greatly—from links and commentary about other web sites, to news about a company/person/idea, to diaries, photos, poetry, mini-essays, project updates, even fiction.
