Everyone an author now!

I changed your accounts from subscriber to author so that you can publish your own articles now. Be thoughtful and relevant.

Be sure to set up email notifications so that you will be notified of new content: go to the footer and add your email to the “Subscriber to my posts” box.

To track comments to articles, click the follow button on the bottom of the article.

It will be a good experience for you to see how to manage a blog. Be sure to select a category and you can also create tags for your articles, (which I haven’t done as those are mostly for web search results on public blogs). Let me know any trouble with formatting or posting.

A note on posting full-length articles: we are able to post them, as we are invoking the “fair use” doctrine on use of copyright for educational purposes. To do this, we must be a closed-blog, restricted to our own class and not open to the public. If we were open to the public, we would need to use excerpts only and link to the original content to read full articles.

You should be aware of copyright, especially in this age when everyone thinks they can just freely use whatever’s on the web. Nope.

 

Above all, have fun!
