Post Your Photos with "Hello"

The best way to learn to Blog is by Blog hopping. Just casually wander around by pressing the "Next Blog" button on the top right hand corner of your Blogger window will start your journey. The Blogger world is full of gems that you can pick from. The first I did was Hello when I visited one of Jennifer Su's Blogs.

Like Blogger, Hello is so easy to use that I'll just say that you can find the explanations in http://www.hello.com/ Note that you could also navigate there by clicking on the Title of this posting. In fact, you will find that every posting Title of this Blog will lead you to the site of the subject being discussed. I just retype the URL link in the posting for those who are not aware of the implicit links.

Even though the vanilla Blogger editor allows you to post photos, Hello is an excellent alternative because it can speed up the process by probably 50%-70%, and it has a very nice user interface. But if you need to upload multiple photos in one posting, then you might want to use the vanilla Blogger editor.

I should credit Jennifer for the use of Hello and the style of her blogging, which I stoled for all my Blogs up to now. Each of her Blogs is a short story of a travel. She recaps the trip at the top of the Blog. The rest are all photos, some of which bearing additional descriptions. It may not be the best recipe for everyone, but it is a good style especially for beginners.
