How to Upload a Blog to Scribd

Delight the world with your words.

Scribd.com is a mix between social networking and document sharing. With more than 60 million users they play host to music, poetry, fiction, biography, art, presentations and just about any kind of document you can imagine. Blogs -- or web logs -- provide a way to share thoughts and pictures online in an easily publishable and distributable format. Since Scribd is focused more on the sharing of documents, there is no direct integration between blog services and the Scribd documents. If you want to upload your blog to Scribd, you first need to save it in a compatible format on your computer.

Instructions

1. Open your blog editor and select the blog entry you want to upload to Scribd. Click and drag to select the contents of the blog or press "Ctrl+A" on your keyboard to use the "Select All" function. Press "Ctrl+C" to copy the contents of your blog post.

2. Open a document editor that is compatible with Scribd. You can use Adobe PDF and PostScript files; Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel files; OpenOffice Text, Presentation and Spreadsheet documents; anything in the OpenDocument format, TXT or RTF files. Press "Ctrl+V" to past the contents of your blog into the document editor.

3. Press "Ctrl+S" to save your document. Type a name for the file and check that the file type is one that Scribd will support. Click "Save."

4. Log in to your Scribd account at Scribd.com. Click the "Upload" button at the top of the screen. Click the "Upload" button on the next screen. Browse to the location of the document you created and double-click the file. Confirm that you accept the Scribd terms of service.

5. Type in the title of your blog entry and choose a category from the drop-down menu. Click "Save." Your blog post is now uploaded to Scribd and ready for sharing with all your Scribd followers.
