As will other web-parts, you must click the Settings() button to configure this web-part. There is a good amount on on-page Help () content to assist you as you configure the web-part.

Adding, Editing, and Deleting Blog Entries

If you login and click the little pencil icon at the very top of the blog, you will add a new blog entry. If you click the pencil icon beside an existing blog entry, you will be able to edit (or delete) that entry.

Blog entries are created using the HTML WYSIWYG editor.
