listed in reverse chronological order
on your blog’s front page.

posts. The easiest way is with
the New Post button on the right
side of the toolbar.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Your Microsoft Account is your key to accessing all of the great tools and software Microsoft has available for you. Some of you may already have a Microsoft account that you are using, this section is for those that do not have a Microsoft account and need to create a new one. Note; if you already sign into Xbox Live, Outlook.com or OneDrive, that means you already have a Microsoft account and will be able to use it.
  • #7 DreamSpark provide the resources and software students need to developer websites, app and games. In addition we provide access to the Microsoft Cloud (Azure) so that you can show your creation to the world.
  • #11 Continue shows up directly after verifying code and then again on the next screen.
  • #12 Azure supports the broadest selection of operating systems, programming languages, frameworks, tools, databases and devices. Run Linux containers with Docker integration; build apps with JavaScript, Python, .NET, PHP, Java, Node.js; build backends for iOS, Android, and Windows devices. Azure supports the same technologies millions of developers and IT professionals already rely on and trust.
  • #15 Security is our top priority at Microsoft. To help secure Azure we require cell phone activation for each account.
