How to post a follow-up message

The Warbler has learned through the grapevine that people who wish to reply to messages do not know how to set up an anonymous account to facilitate posting. I will explain how you can do this.

You may want to "Print" this entry so you can follow the directions.

1) In the upper right corner of this page, click on the thing that says: "Create Blog".

2) Type in your "Email address" where it says to. This will *not* be shared with anyone (it says this on the right hand side). No one will be able to know it's you who is posting.

3) Retype your Email address in the box below the first one.

4) Pick a password that you'll remember and enter in the "Enter a password", and
in the "Retype password" box just below.

5) Pick a "Display name". This is the name that will appear next to your posts. Avoid putting your real name in here, unless you want everyone to know who you are. A catchy name is nice. For example, if "The Bear" wanted to create an account, he could use "The Bear" as the Display name.

6) In the box that says, "Word Verification", retype the word it shows in the box. The word may be hard to read, but this is done for security purposes.

7) Click the "Acceptance of Terms" box.

8) Press the orange "Continue" arrow on the bottom.

9) On the next page, pick a title for your BLOG - this can be anything you want. "The Bear's Blog" would be suitable for "The Bear".

10) For Blog Address (URL), enter your display as one word, for example: TheBear

11) Press the Orange Continue arrow at the bottom.

12) On the next page, "Choose a template", just press the Orange Continue arrow.

13) It will create your blog, and you should then press the "Start Blogging" button.

14) You can then just go to the "wilmwarbler.blogspot.com" website, read the blogs there, and
post follow-ups if you want!

It's that simple! Enjoy and contribute! Let the town know what YOU think!

  1. Wilmington is going to be a no smoke community,fuel oil, propane,electric. All the new homes,condos, are just for the richy-rich. There will be no more wood stoves to smoke this town up. While all you richy-rich try to cook and keep warm,when there are no fuel deliverys,or electricity. We with woodstoves will be warm. Stop the insane rules to ban wood fuel users.
