How can I set up a blog

Hi oberry,

The easiest way to start a blog is to go to a website that hosts blogs
and sign up for the service.  The website will have information about
how to add content to your blog and change its appearance.  Some of
these services are free, some cost money, and some have limited free
services that can be expanded for a charge.

Some of the leading blog hosting websites are:

Blogger
http://www.blogger.com/start

LiveJournal.com
http://www.livejournal.com/

TypePad
http://www.sixapart.com/typepad/

DiaryLand
http://www.diaryland.com/

You can find many more in the list on this page from the Weblogs Compendium site:

I used a weblog post by Elise Bauer to identify leading blog hosting sites.

I hope this helps you get started.  Best of luck with your new blog!
