Learning to Blog

I'm currently at a session at a professional development conference on blogging. I have to go save something to my new gmail - oops the computer I was on just crashed and I've changed to a new computer. I've lost what it was I was supposed to save. Now we're on to starting a blog  - on http://www.blogger.com/ and sign in with my new google account. I'll be back.
When I logged into that web address it took me right back to here.
Nice idea I just got to set up a separate blog for students that I tutor. I don't tutor anyone now - but a thought for something after retriement sets in and I long for the thrill of instructional moments and money.
Now what would I call that blog - I'm open to suggestions from any followers. Maybe something like - Dr.C's Tutoree's (Thanks for keeping me from bagging groceries at Publix!). Maybe that's a little long for a blog title.
Hopefully soon we are going to learn some bells and whistles. O.K. we're going to learn some uploading tricks.






I've uploaded the picture I am typing next to right now. The reason behind this picture is because the upcoming 7th grade project on the end of the earth!! It has been a little weird typing around the picture. I'll have more on this picture. Last year I read an article on a major danger to the Earth came from cosmic wind (I think it was ) when our solar system pops above the galactic central bulge. (FYI The picture is from the website emergentculture.com. Nice info on Mayan calendar.)

Now we are going through safety settings. I think mine is set so anybody can read it. Yes, it is. Wow, I just had a look at the "stats". I had no idea so many people had visited - 8 from Poland and 8 from Russia. Spaseeba! 
Now we are supposed to play with it. How about some background color?
We can go now.
