It’s easy to create and maintain a weblog. Use one of these free services: Blogger.com, Rediff.com, Pitas.com, Xanga.com or LiveJournal.com.
Each of these services allows you to create a blog on its servers. Follow the instructions at Tar Heel Bloggers to create a blog on your UNC Onyen server space – when you do this, your blog’s address will be www.unc.edu/~youronyen/blog.html.
You can also create a blog with a unique address. First, buy a domain name for about $15/year at dotEarth.com or dotster.com. Then, follow the instructions on Blogger.com to set up your weblog.
Subscription blog services such as TypePad offer more publishing tools and page design options. Server-side weblog software such as MovableType and TextPattern - which you install onto your webspace - is more powerful yet, but such programs require HTML savvy and other programming knowledge. See Blogroots for a comprehensive list of weblog tools and programs.
