Gadgets

31 Aug
One great feature of your website is your site’s overall functionality and ability to customize.  One of the best ways to customize your space is with the addition (or even subtraction) of tools or gadgets that make your page more personal.  For instance, the addition of weather for the ports of call that a specific cruise makes, or potential cruises for that matter, provide a way for your viewer to keep in touch with what kind of weather you’re experiencing and how high on the jealous scale they should be.
 
Another gadget that I like is the ability to create a "blog list".  A blog list is a way for you to keep the viewers of your webpage informed on the other websites that you enjoy visiting, and also a way for you to send those subsequent people to those websites that you’re describing by providing them with the link.
 
The other reason I like gadgets and tools is because they are extremely easy to add or hide on your page.  If you’d like to add the weather, or a blog list, or even stock tips, simply click on the customize button towards the upper right section of your page, and then click on the add modules button.  You’ll see a whole list of modules load on the left side of your page, and the gadgets section is towards the middle.
 
Happy blogging and talk to everyone soon!  I promise.

    Hi Jane,You need not do anything to prepare a blog, we can do it all onboard. I will not be on the ship until November 23rd though, so you will actually have another techspert for most of the trip it sounds like.Look forward to meeting you though!-Will
