Hello,
I am just beginning my journey into programming and a friend invited me to use Pascal.
I am so lost I cannot even find how to start a blog.
I would like to document my adventure and miss steps.
Could some one take pity and tell me where to go to start my blog?
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill and welcome to PGD

The reason you couldn't find where to start a blog is because as a new user you're access to the site is severely limited until you are unmoderated by one of the moderators or an admin. I've approved your opening post so if all goes well, the system should promote you in about 15 minutes time... when that occurs you should find you will be able to start your post. I will check back in the morning (I'm in the UK and am about to go to bed) and make sure the promotions have worked (I've been waiting for a real new member to test it since I made changes to the system a few days ago).

To access the blogs, click the 'Blogs' button at the top of the page and once you're promoted, you should have a 'Create Post' option which will allow you to post.

Hope this helps, I'll check back in the morning and fix your user if you aren't automatically promoted.
