Welcome to the Yahi Blog

I see you made it to the blog.

The way this work is, you have been invited to be an author. That means you can originate a blog entry. ANYONE can view the blogs and respond to them, just by going to the blog site.

One thing that might be handy to know is how to copy and paste a piece of text from some other document on your computer into the blog text box.
  1. Highlight the text you want to copy.
  2. Press Ctrl and "c" simultaneously. This copies the highlighted text to your clipboard.
  3. Place the cursor where you want the text to go and press Ctrl and "v" simultaneously. This will copy the text into the blog box (or where ever else you want it).
Call me at 872-9159 if you have a question.

I see this as a place we can exchange information immediately - no waiting. I hope you find it useful. Louise
