For those of you out there who want to post comments but don't know how, here are a few easy tips:
1. When you want to respond to a certain article, click the "comments" link at the bottom of the page (this also allows you to view the comments that others may have posted).
2. When you get to the "comments" page, on the right hand side you will see three places to enter text: Comment box, email and password.
3. If you are a blogger or have a google account, you are exempt from an extra step. However, if you are not a blogger or do not have a google account, all you have to do is give them your current email address and a password. So, when you click the "sign up for account" link, you're not really acquiring a new email address but rather giving google your current information so that you can use blogger. Therefore, even after you "sign up" you will not "sign in" with a new email from google, you will still use your old email address and the password you have furnished.
4. Once you have given your information to google, you never have to do it again. Just use your old email and password every time you want to post a comment. Even when I, as a blogger, sign in, I do not use a google email account; like everyone else, I just use my old (= current) email address.
5. You can type your comments in the discussion box and sign in and when you do, your comments will be posted. Oh yeah, you will also have to replicate a code word that appears on the screen--nothing complicated. In fact, it is all that easy.
6. Also, keep in mind, you do not always have to respond to the contents of the article, if you click the "comments" section and find that someone posted a comment that you would like to respond to, you are free to do that. Blogger is a great place for carrying out discussion and debate.
7. When you're done, feel free to sign out (although, it's not a big deal if you don't). The "sign out" link is always located at the top right corner of the screen.
