Setting up Google docs to edit and publish your posts
This is a fairly straightforward procedure
![]()
- make sure you have a google account - free
- go to google docs and start a new document - like Word
- write your information for your post
- save the file - not sure if you really have to do this, but it makes sense
- click on the ’share’ button on the rhs menus
- click ‘publish as web page’
- click ‘change your blog site settings’
- choose ‘my own server/custom’
- API is moveable type API
- URL - put in your address where is says ‘Your site/Path’
- mine looks like this http://miketemple123.edublogs.org/TO/xmlrpc.php - ie set up for a Wordpress API
- Under existing blog settings, put in your edublogs username and password
- Add in your blog title
- Tick ‘include document title
- click OK
- Now when you’ve finished your post, click ’share’ and then ‘publish as a web page’ then publish to blog
- let me know what you think of this - applications please
Create a free edublog to get your own comment avatar (and more!)

I wonder if this, or some version of this, works with the Slideshow and Spreadsheet formats, too?
It would be great to share slideshows via Google, directly into the blog.
