English 421Y: Technical Writing Online

You might notice that now there are a few buttons above the entry blank when you make blog posts or comments. You can use these buttons to add simple formatting to your posts (insert link, boldface, italics, headers, lists). You just have to highlight your text and click.

Feel free to post a reply here to try them out, and say if you like them or if you ran into any problems using them. (This isn't an assignment—merely something to give the site more zip.)
