Embedding your Glog on Your KS Blog

January 24, 2011Ed. Tech Resources, Web 2.0Glogsterelcordei

One of the wonderful things about Glogster is you have the option embedding your Glog into a Blog or a Wiki. But one of the things I ran into when trying to embed my glog into my blog is the size was either too big, or too small. So here’s how you can embed your glog and make it fit!

From your Glogster EDU dashboard, copy the embed code
From your KS Blog dashboard, click on the HTML tab
Paste the embed code and replace the “100” with “70”
Voila! Your Glog now fits in your Blog! 🙂 Click here to see an example of what it looks like in your blog.
