How to navigate this blog

The above image describes the main body of a post. A post is a small article and its content can include images and sound and links to other web sites. All posts in a blog are presented in reverse chronological order. Blog readers can submit their comments, usually relating to the content of the post uploaded by the blog administrator. To leave a comment you can click on the Comments link which is under the post text. At the bottom of each post there are labels. Labels are words the blogger administrator uses to describe the content of a post.



On the right hand side of the posts in this blog there is a column. Depending on the template the blog administrator chooses there could be two or three columns. On the first part of this column, as illustrated above, you can read some information regarding the profile of the blog administrator (or blogger) and also miscellaneous links relating to the Library and the American Farm School.

On the second part of the column you can see Delicious bookmarks. Delicious is a social bookmarking service that substitutes the function of Favorites in a personal computer. Thus, someone can save his/her favorite links in a social bookmarking service and checks them from any computer that has internet connection. In the case of this blog you can find interesting articles regarding your field of instruction. Click here for more information on Delicious
In this column you can view a monthly archive of all posts written thus far. Finally, there is also a list of the labels used to describe posts. Next to each label there is a number in parenthesis which signifies the number of times this label has been used to describe the content of a post.
