Feature Story: Blogger Today We'll be reviewing a peer blog. This one is called How to Create and Use a Blogger Blog .            I quite enjoy this blog overall. It has very friendly and descriptive content. These posts go above and beyond just being a tutorial and explain why these things are good to know. I appreciate the neat makings on each post like these red circles here. This is overall good content.           The theme is pleasing to look at.

Otherwise, it looks quite nice. Everything is neatly organized and presented in a professional manner. I commend this creator.
