How to set up a free blog using Blogger

While I'm sure we're all aware that employees have access to Gmail now, there's also many other great Google Apps that we have access too as well.  Today I'm going to discuss how to setup your own free blog using Blogger.com and your existing atlantic.edu account.
First login to your account through its.atlantic.edu navigate to your email.  At the very top of your email screen you'll see a couple of links like pictured below.


Click on the more link to discover all the other Google App goodness that awaits you.  From the listing of the many Google Services available to you (I recommend you check them out when you have a second) locate the Blogger one that's under the Communicate, show and share heading.


This will take you to Blogger.  This is a very popular and free blog host.  As an employee with an atlantic.edu email address you already have a Google account and can login with your email address and password to get started.


And that's it, you're now logged into Blogger and can follow the simple steps to setting up and customizing your blog. Congratulations you are now the proud owner of your very own blog!
