Make your blog into a book

My sister-in-law gave me the heads up on this site, but for those of you who have never heard of Blurb.com...you better check it out! This website offers a way for you to save your blog and print it later in a book format. A very nice hardbound book I might add. It's the perfect alternative for those wanting another option to scrapbooking. You can go to this link to watch their tutorial:

http://www.blurb.com/learn_more/booksmart There's an orange book to right of the page to click on.

You basically download their software to your computer. Upload all your blog posts to the program and from there you can select different templates that coordinate with each of your posts. Once all of your posts have been formatted, Blurb.com will upload your information and print the pages and make it into a nice hardbound book. The prices are not that bad if you take into consideration how much you would really spend making a scrapbooking layout for each post. The prices are based on the amount of pages in your book.

Since some of us are beginning bloggers. This may be the perfect time to download the program now instead of waiting to the end of the year when you would have tons of posts to format. You all know it's alot easier to do a little at a time than a whole lot in the end. I mean you don't need me telling you that, right? :D So hop on over to the website to see if it's the perfect thing you've been looking for to help you keep track of your family history.
