37. Setting up your blog: 1. Go to blogger.com and sign up for a blog. You will need to use your email address. If you are using a non- gmail email address, you will be asked to create a password to access your blog. If you are using a gmail account, you can use your current password. Please write down the email and password you use. 2. Click on “Create new blog”. You will be asked to create a blog title. This can be anything you want – something like “My Math Blog” or “John’s Algebra Blog” is fine (but use your first name…). 3. Next you will be asked to create the web address of your math blog. It is very important that you do not use your last name. Mine is “johnschnatterly.blogspot.com”, but I’m a teacher. You may have to try several addresses to find something available that makes sense.
