What is a Blog and how do you make it?

Well, just posting is just that, you're posting in a forum. A blog is your own personal space where you can write about anything you like and you control all of the content. Here, your blog posts do normally appear in the forums where they get more exposure and people can easily find them, read them, and post comments.

A few tips.

Interesting titles will go a long way toward getting your articles read.

Good writing style is important if you want anyone to spend any time reading what you wrote. Nobody wants to read one long run on paragraph.

Spell check your writing.

As for a title for your blog, well that's pretty much up to you isn't it?

Oh and one more thing, you should spend some time reading other people's articles and commenting on them if you expect people to do the same for you. JU is different from most other blog sites in that it has a true community feel to it and you should take the time to get to know the other bloggers here.
