How to use this blog

Hi everyone,

Glad to see that some of you have begun using the blog. This is just a tip for using it.

Adding a COMMENT to a post (something someone wrote) is great! Just click on the picture of a pencil at the end of any post.

But if you want to POST (write) a new thought ... one that will appear on the main page for all to easily see ... click on NEW POST next to your name at the top of this page. If you were invited to register and you did, your name will appear at left, and you can add a NEW POST at any time.

At the next screen, you can add a PHOTO by clicking on the blue box (you will see it). To add a link to another place on the web (for instance, your MySpace page, a favorite YouTube video ... please only link to "appropriate" videos!), then click on the image of a chain on the next screen (again, you will see it). It's really pretty easy!

OK, 60 days and counting ... will it go by quickly or s...l...o...w...l...y??

We want to hear from you!

The Friends of Friedrichshafen has created this space to share everything about this year's youth exchange with everyone. If you are a program student, host family, family who has sent a student to visit ... or if you're just interested in this program, feel free to post a comment or load a photo.

If you are keeping a separate web page or blog about this experience, please add a link to it. I'll start by adding links to the FOF 2006 Youth Exchange blog and the FOF 2005 Youth Exchange blog. The more the merrier!
