Tutorial - How to Leave a Link in the Comments

Today I'm posting something a little bit different, because, who wants to post the same thing everyday, right?

Today's post is a tutorial. I thought I would make a series of them. What do you think?

For this post, I'm going to tell you guys how to get a link in your comments. Because there isn't realy an option to do this and I know that I for one always want to.

This is much easier than you would think. All you need is this little code:

<a href="www.google.com">Home</a>

Change the link to whatever you want and the 'Home' to whatever you want to be shown. For me that is: <a href=www.almostcompletelymad.blogspot.com>(Almost) Completely Mad</a>

Then post this in your comment and publish it! There you are, how to leave a link in the comments:)

A Feeling Like Nothing Else

via


Your hair flies around you in the wind. The trees sway above your head. Your cheeks are glowing.

You dash down the road, your feet making easy work of the uneven ground. You're on a roll.

A man waves as you run past, surprised by the sight of you. A girl with a dog gets out of your way. You smile your thanks and keep going. You can't stop, adrenaline is keeping you going.

Another kilometre. Around another corner. You don't know where you are going, you just have to run.

All your worries drop away as you pant your way down another hill. You don't care about anything anymore. All that matters is running.

Past the shops you go. You wave to the people you pass.

Down another street, your almost home. Your almost sorry.

Past the house with the mad dog, past the old lady knitting in her front garden, past the man drinking beer and mowing the lawn.

You stop. You're home. You're tired and sweaty, but happy. You made it!

Today I'm posting my tenth post! Yay:) Thanks to everyone who has commented and helped me make it to ten posts (great achievement I know).

This post is quite special to me. As a runner I know all about the feeling of running and how it can be tiring, but it's worth it in the end!
