How to Make a Blogroll

How to Make a Blogroll:
1. Log into Blogger.com.
2. Notice that there are 3 tabs at the top: Posting, settings, and layout. Go to the Layout Tab within blogger.com.
3. Click on a box that says "add a gadget."
4. Click on "bloglist."
5. Uncheck all of those boxes. That way just the title of the blog will show up on your sidebar.
6. Click on "add to list" and keep adding the urls. You can cut and paste.
7. When you are done, don't forget to hit "save."

You want that blogroll on the sidebar and not on the bottom of the page. If you have already set up a blogroll, but it is on the bottom of your page. You can move it around in the layout page. Just drag it where you want it.

Blogroll

I am setting up a class blogroll. Please replicate this blogroll for your blog.

I have the incorrect url for several students. Please use the comment feature of this blog to give me correct information.

UPDATE: Shawn, please give me the correct url of your blog.

The Political Machine and Afghanistan For Change have been added to the blogroll.

UPDATE 3/11: I fixed the links for two class blogs. Shaima's "Politics Change the World" is working now. It replaces AfghanistanTowardPeace. Also Shawn's blog "In the Alley" works, too.

The only blog address that is having problems is "Political Animal."

Welcome Students

Welcome, Politics and Media students! I hope you are all getting the hang of this software and are having fun as "citizen-journalists."

I will be updating this blog periodically to suggest things to read or watch. I will also set up a complete blogroll of all the student blogs and other important sources.
