How to Add a Member to a Team Blog on Blogger.com

Creating a blog as a means for a group of people to communicate is easy on Blogger.com, which allows you to create team blogs. In a team blog, multiple people can post messages as administrators, and the blog belongs to the community of members rather than just one person.
