Video Transcript

"Hi my name is Dexter, we're going to talk about how to post your eHow article as a bulletin on MySpace. First and foremost, there is no real way to copy and paste an eHow article, not on MySpace anyway. You can try and copy and paste but you've got a lot of filler and some ads and stuff in there that are unnecessary and hard to edit out later. So really all you're left with is posting the link to the article. And what you do is you find the article you're interested in or your article, go up to the very top of the page once you're on the article and that address is called the URL. You're going to highlight it, hold down CTRL C or right clip, go to copy. And then you're going to go over to MySpace and you can go to your bulletin space which is right there in the middle of the page, click on post bulletin and here you have a subject and a body and the body is where your link is going to go, but the subject you have to put something enticing, something to catch their eye. You can write look at this, this is really cool or this is how to be a bone marrow blood cell donor, something. Type that there, and in the body you're going to want to post the URL as a link, something they can just click on that will open them up into a new page. And here we're going to use HTML, a series of tags that will tell the web page that this is a link that they need to click on. And to do that, you type in open carat, the letter A, space, href=, quotation mark and then you can hold down CTRL and hit V or right click and go to paste, then end quotation mark and closing carat. And here you write text, something that they have to click on to bring them to this page and here you can just write exactly what it is and after that, opening carat, backslash, A, closing carat. Then after you're done with that you can just go to post bulletin. When you post it and they open it up, they can just click right on the link, it'll open up a new tab or a new page and that's how you post your eHow article as a bulletin on MySpace."
