How to Participate in this Community
Posted On Friday, October 12, 2007 at at 10/12/2007 03:08:00 PM by Phil TierneyThe CPATH blog has been live for a few weeks now but we’ve noticed that very few of you are participating in discussions there. Your participation in blog discussions will to allow us to make progress outside of the scheduled meetings, increasing our speed and output quality.
To help you get started, we’ve prepared a few notes on what you need to do. Let us know if you encounter issues or questions. Use the comment link provided below to request help or info.
1. Get a blogger.com user id
- Can be an existing gmail (Google mail) account or create a free Google account. To make your life saner, it's OK to use your standard email address (your.name@work.com) as your id.
- You will need the id and password that you create each time you want to comment on a blog post. You may scan, view, graze, the blog without logging in, though.
- If you are interested in being a regular blogger, let me know and I will provide that access.
- Notes & Clarifications:
- Once you’ve created your id and password, you will be redirected to the blogger dashboard where you can navigate into the cpath blog and participate.
- By clicking on the Comments link for any particular posting. You must be signed in to comment.
- Internet Explorer 7 and Outlook 2007 support blog subscriptions
- Google Reader, Firefox WIZZ RSS reader and NewsGator are also good choices
- You may also subscribe in an rss container with many popular home pages like MyYahoo or Google News.
