How to Create a Post
22 Nov
I currently have 3 computers.
I have an iMac that I bought when my old computer died.
I have a pretty decent Windows desktop computer that was given to me when a friend got a new computer. They gave it to me because I like playing around with computers.
I have a laptop that I bought about 6 months ago because….I don’t know why..it was on sale.
I hardly ever use the laptop.
Anyways, this post is about how to create a post. So this is how I create one:
-I write my posts using Pages which is just a word processing program on my Mac.
Sometimes I use NeoOffice on my Mac instead.
It’s a crap shoot really. Whatever that means. Both programs work great.
-I load my posts into WordPress using the Mac.
This part bugs me because the Mac isn’t all that fast. I like speed. Not the speed that kills. Or the drug. I just don’t like waiting for the post to load.
-As soon as the post is loaded in WordPress I run to my Windows computer. Sometimes I just saunter over to the computer. The Windows computer is only about 6 feet away so usually I don’t need to pack a lunch or anything.
-I find a photo to go with my post on Google. Generally I don’t care if the photo has a copywrite or anything. Seriously, if it bothered the picture taker person, I’d remove it.
I’m not a thief. I’m just lazy.
-I edit my post on WordPress. It doesn’t help but I like to think it does.
-I post the post. I don’t literally mail it anywhere. I just hit the post button in WordPress. Not literally hit it. I move my cursor over the post button and press the mouse key like this and it does stuff.
Usually when I explain this to people they have questions so I’ll save you some time and answer them here:
Why don’t you just write your posts on the Windows computer?
-Because I don’t like Word or Open Office that much. Plus I like writing on my Mac.
If you did pack a lunch when going from the Mac to the Windows computer what’s in it?
Usually just a sandwich. And cookies of course.
Can’t you write better posts?
No. Quit asking me that..
So, today’s question is:
1) How do you write your posts?
