How to start blogging
The simplest way to get started in blogging is to go to a major site like blogger or typepad and take it from there. Both sites are free.
Even if you are a webmaster and think you might want to install blogging software on your website these are still good places to start as they will help you get experience of what is involved with the minimum fuss and bother. Also even if you do later set up your own blog software you can use your blog on the external site to point back to the blog you are hosting yourself.
