Hi there,

Welcome to the new improved Familyblog. There is a new layout that makes it easier for you to post (and might mean the blog doesn’t go quiet while I travel.

If you just type and ‘Post it’ you’ve created a post. If you want to get fancy, you can have it as a status update (short) or a blog post (long). You can add photos or videos using the ‘Add Media’ option.

Just try it, and everything else you’ll pick up as you go along.
