"teach these souls to blog~"
*laughs*

Yes. The title of this entry is a parody of a serious work: a painting which bears this name Teach These Souls to Fly. It's a lovely work, which has many layers of meaning.

Anyway, consider this a lesson all you who have no blog and marvel at such things. (That means: Mokuba, Cassandra, Alicia, and all others ^_^ yes, you too!!)

First of all, blogs are easier to maintain than websites.

Mainly because: they are just posts of text made by the author, similar to posting in a forum (but without the whole mess of threads and replies and sometimes spam). For those of you who are non-Internet people, it's similar to e-mail or writing in a journal. Also, you don't even have to update it too regularily- it's much less upkeep than a website is since it is mainly text based, and if you want people to know what is going on with you- it's pretty much simple easy fun.

So, how do I do this you ask?

First of all, there are various places one can get a blog account for free *yay!* and as you can see, I have a free one on Angelfire (which I like very much- it has awesome options, but I'll discuss that later on in the future...) Practically, what you need to do is to choose one (hang out with me in Angelfire!!) then make an account (make sure it's free- if you don't want to pay or don't have money like me of course) and start your blog.

During this process, you will want to make sure of everything. Some accounts you can recieve will also give you the added option of having some free web space for a website: you do not have to make use of it though.<--remember that! You should make sure that you have read through the FAQ's throughly and also to make sure that you know exactly what it is that you are doing. (Kind of like having an account in a forum, eh Mokuba-kun? ^_^ *smiles*)

...and that is how you start. For now, you can consider this as lesson One in an ongoing series.

^.^ have fun everyone!!
