How I share
A News Article
............................................................................................................................................................................
Step One: Find something interesting
read the news, blogs, surf the internet
....all kinds of stuff.
I have hundreds of bookmarks in Feedly
that keeps me updated on stuff that I like.
.
When you find something...
like this
.
Step Two : do this
.
see what I did there?
I took a portion of the news title
.
The Voyage
.
and made IT the title of my post.
I centered a picture that I got from somewhere.
in this case it came from the article.
I might have taken it from somewhere else
pixabay, Snappy Goat
or perhaps an animation from GIPHY
If I didn't like THEIR choice of picture.
I'd find, or make, my own.
.
Then...
I took the rest of the title.
.
of the Michi Zeebee
.
and made it into a link
.
[ of the Michi Zeebee] goes in brackets
(http://www.piercecountyherald.com/life/4296360-voyage-michi-zeebee) in parenthesis
.
add em together
.
for a clean link
.
of the Michi Zeebee
.
not near as messy as a naked link.
.
THEN
.
I put a line of dots (or something) below it.
....................................................................................................................................................................
.
which will prevent any text from the story from appearing on the introduction
.
then I give credit for a snippet from the text of the article.
.
---from the article---
.
THEN
.
I close the centering
.
.
Next
I copy/past a paragraph or two.
.
Finally
.
I add a tag.
.
newslinks is an accepted tag.
I'm not positive but If I recall it was approved due to
the anal orifice known as Cheetah.
Cheetah leaves posts tagged as newslinks alone.
I intentionally misspell it...
.
newzleakz
.
My way of saying
.
"I'll play your silly game..but I think it's STOOPID"
.
some times I add a qualifier with a dash
newzleakz-stoopids
.
I've come to think that this is over-kill
Chetah is a stoopid bot..aren't they all?
by using the format that I do I think I've slipped in under it's radar.
the newslinks tag isn't needed...maybe.
.
Cheetah has been programmed to look for copy/pasta
what I do is a bit more complex...
.
SO..
that's how I do it.
I can find, prepare, and post a news article in less than five minutes.
and that's a problem.
I have to intentionally slow myself down
because
I'm CONSTANTLY running into that 'nag' telling me
you can't make more than one post every five minutes
.
bleh
.
OH.
Well
STEEM ON.
