A Post, very simply, is something a Contributor writes that appears in the Feed. As opposed to a Headline, which is just a link to another website with a short headline and an image, a Post can be much longer and richer. (Members have limited access to create some kinds of Posts too.)
There are four things you can do with a Post:
* Text Post – Just words. Type away to your heart’s content! You have up to 2,000 characters (roughly 350 words or so) to share what’s on your mind.
* Image Post – Words, but with pictures too! Click the “Add an image” button to upload a photo to go with your thoughts.
* Video Post – Words and pictures, but the pictures move and make sound! It’s the hot new thing, we hear all the kids are doing it. Click the “Add a video” button to upload yours and get started.
* Link Post – Go ahead and paste a link in your post, and the link will load, and then you can add text and images to comment on the link too.
Think of a Post as your multimedia sandbox where you can express yourself as a Contributor and share with others. Try it today!
