Adding a Link to Your Blog Entries

Since your blog responses will often be to articles you have read on the web, in the NYTimes Arts Section or other publications, its a good idea to include a link to the original article in your post.  You may also want to include links of related videos, images, etc. so the reader can learn more about your topic.

To do so, copy the URL of the website you want to link.  Then log in to the class blog.  Create a new post.  Type some text, like “click here” or “You can see more images here”, then highlight this text with your cursor.  Go to the top of the box and click on the little chain-link icon in the middle of the top row of buttons.  This will bring up a new box.  Paste the URL you copied earlier into this box, click “Add Link” and then publish your post.
