See that Big Beautiful RSS button (Really Simple Syndication)
in the right-hand column? That happened with
the son's help. (digital age: 16 years)
How? NOW GET THIS: Instructions, teenage style:
"Mom, go to Google. Type: 'HTML' in search box."
Well, "DAAH" or "D'OH!" per Homer Simpson.
(It's the mimic/copy, trial & error method!
Digital beings do it ALL the time.)
We simply copied an example HTML text from this
tutorial and grabbed the RSS picture from another spot.
SHAKE & BAKE.
(Do copyright laws apply here in the learning-to-blog world?
Answer: Mom, the copyright police can't look through everything!)
"Son, what happens to that RSS button if the website
we got it from is deleted?" Response,"There will just
be an X in the corner of an empty square."
I think the same thing will happen on this blog if I
deleted my avatar on Yahoo.
Note that I figured out how to edit the italicized font.
Son helped me with that too. As I suspected, I had
inadvertently made italicized font part of the template.
On to THING 5.
See the "GAMES" link to Becky's Flickr
image-Sudoku in the right-hand column?
That's my first attempt to do THING 5!
Can you figure out how to play?
p.s. The word "PREFECTIONIST" above Ms. Avatar (who I moved because she was lost on the bottom of the page) was done on purpose to remind me not to get so serious or be too much of a perfectionist!
