  1. I am having a hard time following my group members that did not create their blog on Blogspot. Can you help me add them?
    Thanks, Megan Rinaldi

  2. Hi Megan,

    I couldn't figure how to follow 2 of our group members for the same reason you stated above. What I did was add them to my "favorites" tab. Not sure if that will suffice, but at least I have their link so that I could comment on their blogs.

  3. I am having trouble following one group member. The internet message cannot find the server. I am able to add 2 of 3 members.
    Thanks, Debbi Santos
