Getting Started with
Edublogs.org
5.
When you click on the the URL to your blog, you’ll see something like this. You
now have a published blog! But you can’t yet use it!
You need to wait for that pesky email….sometimes this takes a bit of time
depending on the time of day.
6.
Check your email periodically. You should receive the
confirmation email within 10-20 minutes. If you don’t receive it before then…it’s
possible you’ve typed in an incorrect email address. Irritating, isn’t it?
7.
Confirmation email: When it arrives, it will look something
like this. I’ve highlighted the most important info.
a.
Your blog’s URL
b.
Your username (this cannot be changed)
c.
Your password (this CAN be changed later…but its
important to know this so KEEP THIS EMAIL!! until we change it)
d.
The URL for administering and logging into your blog
Quick Tip: You’ll also receive
an email confirmation for your Wikispace account,
sometimes even BEFORE you get the confirmation from Edublogs. Your login info for your Wikispace
is exactly the same as your Edublogs login, so if you
get that one first, you’re all set to login to your Edublogs
blog. Also, be
sure to check your spam or junk mail folder—my Edublogs
confirmation ended up in the spam folder of my Yahoo! email account.
