One way to share our thought, attitude and our beliefs in a writing form is creating a web log. There are so many web logs in the vast world of internet, according to your interest you can choose one of them. My structures mostly is based on bloging on blogspot. To creating a free page of your own on the internet follows the structure below:

3- Go to the main page of your favorite weblog and choose “create blog" or “sing in as a new member".

4- Fill the membership’s form.
