How to Flickr with Blogger

Ok so I had the burning desire to put pictures from my flickr account on my new blogger page. So here's how I did it and what you need to do it.

  1. You need a flickr account.
  2. Sign into your account and navigate to one of the pictures you want to post in your blog.
  3. Select the "Blog This" button at the top of the picture (in the toolbar).
  4. Follow the instruction on the screen to complete your registration.
  5. Pick a style of how you want your posts to look.
  6. That's about it

One of the cool things that I found out, is that you can go into you post afterwards and change as much as you want. This makes it nice, because the interface to create your post on flickr is minimal. So I say go ahead and start blogging from flickr to blogger, but blogger isn't your only option. You can post to other popular blogging software as well.

It will just be a matter of time until she's wearing war paint on her face and bring boys back to meet her mother and father. But I plan to enjoy the young years while they last.

The Power of Barter

By now almost everyone has heard of and his quest to trade a red paperclip for a house. Yup, it only took 14 trades but he finally did it. You can read his whole story here. You might also be interested in Bob Meyers' take on what this means to the world of Bartering. For those of you who don't know, Bob is a barter expert, and there is a lot to learn by reading his blog. You may just learn a thing or two about running your own business and getting more out of your business relationships.

This is my very first blogger post

So I made it. Yup I made the leap of creating blogs for clients to now using the worlds easiest blogging client around. The setup was easy and so is just about everything else when it comes to blogger. So like I have promised on my other blogs, I will try to keep this as up to date as I can.
