Learn Somethin' New EVERYDAY!

I am sooo excited right now! I mean really...y'all have absolutely NO IDEA how excited I am! If I could LEAP...I would!!!

Why am I so excited?

I'm glad you asked.

So I came to The Dialogue Den to write today's post.

I was going to write about my trip to Bed Bath & Beyond. But I wanted to include the link to their website. Now in ALL the years I've been writing The Dialogue Den, I have NEVER added a link to ANY post...because I didn't know how.

Occasionally I will "embed" a song (took me YEARS to figure that one out), but NEVER a link to an actual WEBSITE.

I refused to be defeated this evening and decided to "explore." So off to YouTube I went.

I watched a tutorial on how to add a link to your blog, but I still wasn't "gettin' it." The woman's screen on the video looked COMPLETELY different from mine.

At first I thought, "Hmmm...maybe she's using an older version of Blogger." But something quickly told me that that wasn't it. There had to be something else.

So I started fiddlin' around the page...clicked on the HTML button and ALL OF A SUDDEN...an entire DASHBOARD appeared. There is SO MUCH STUFF for me to now choose from.

For example...I can change the font from this... to this... to this. 

And...I can change the COLOR of the font, like this...RED, BLUE,GREEN. Yeah baby!!!

Oh...and I figured out how to add a link, which was my main objective. 

I could stay up ALL NIGHT just playing around and seeing what the options are. I truly feel like a kid in a candy store right now! WOW!!!

So I'll probably write in a different post about why I was buying a bridal shower gift, and what prompted me to write about it. 

But for now...on this "30 Days of THANKFULNESS: Day 28" - I am THANKFUL for YouTube. It has helped me figure out how to do sooo many things. And what I've realized, is that there's STILL lots to learn. 

Now Let the DIALOGUE begin: When was the last time YOU used YouTube to figure out how to do something? 

Talk to me!

Til next time...
