The assignment:
The assignment will be to collect information from specific Facebook and
website posts. Each FB Post links to a corresponding website post. The
information will be entered into Microsoft Word document. I will give you
the template below that contains the information required for each Facebook
post.

Start a new page for each new FB post. Start a new word document when a
word document reaches the limit of 30 FB posts.

The Facebook page that will be the source of information is:


https://www.facebook.com/preppedsurvivalist
The website that will be the source of the data:
http://www.preppedsurvivalist.com

The scope the assignment is to fill out the template for every FB post
starting from 12-1-16 to 1-18-17.

You will be copying information from posts on the Prepped Survival Facebook
post page and the Prepped Survivalist website that the Facebook post links
to. You will be pasting this information into the fields of the template.
You will be filling out one template for each of the Facebook posts. With
the exception of "Number of Likes" field, you will be able to copy and
paste the data instead of typing it in. In order to reduce the number of
typos, please copy and paste the data whenever possible. The number of
likes is the exception, you will have to type in the number of likes.

Always start at the FB post. Fill out the fields in the template in order.
After filling out the Text field, click on the FB post and the website post
will open on a new browser tab.

The tricky part is that the Prepped Survivalist website post will usually
be referring to a website post of a different website and the Prepped
Survivalist website will be quoting text from the other website. Pay
careful attention to the explanation of how to know which part
of the website post is a quote from another website.
The Prepped Survivalist website post will have the following outline:
i) An introduction
ii) Then either a YouTube video or a quote from a part of a blog in an
other website. This quoted text will be slightly shifted to the right.
If there is a youtube video, then there is no quoted text and there will
not be parts iii and iv. So, put the URL of the video into the field for
Prepped Survivalist Quoted Blog text and leave the last two fields of the
template blank.
iii)Then some ending text by the Prepped Survivalist.

iv) And finally, a statement saying to visit the other website to be able
to read the remaining parts of the other website's blog post.

post. Ignore the advertisements. Do not include the advertisements in
the report

Prepped Survivalist Blog Intro text:


In any SHTF situation, certain resources are vital. Theyre an important
key to lasting through the situation and living through sticky situations.
And while you might be waiting to stock up once news of a situation like
this hits, just remember so is almost everybody else.

When prepping for emergencies or actually facing one, youve got to


remember that there are other people out there too, doing the same thing.
Maybe theyre threats, maybe theyre potential allies, but the point is,
survival isnt a one-person show.

And it can pretty quickly become a competition.

One major conflict between people, fighting over resources quickly becomes
a big thing. Thats why you need to be prepared. And what better way than

4. Here is a description of what goes into each field of the


template:

FB Image:
Use a screen capture program (such as ScreenHunter) to capture the image in
the FB post. Note that ScreenHunter is has a free version that can be
downloaded. ScreenHunter is the software that I use and I can send you a
video showing how to use it. If you want me to send the video, send me an
email. There are many other similar screen capture programs and you can use
whichever one you want.

Date of FB Post:
The date of the Facebook post is in the upper left corner of the post.

Number of likes:
The number to the right of the thumbs-up icon

There could also be two other icons like this:


Blog post logging assignment 04/17/17 Page 12 of 14

In that case the number of likes is still the number to the right of the
icons, which 228 in the above example.

Text:
This is only the text above the image of the FB post. Do not include the
text below the Facebook title. So, for this FB post, you would copy: "
[Blog Post] I think the first one might be most important.."

!!!Important!!!
The remaining fields are copied from the Prepped
Survivalist website post that the FB post links to.
Click on the FB post to get to the website post.
FB Post and Website Post Title:
The bold text immediately below the FB image. The exact same title will be
the title of the website post. You can't copy it from the FB post,
instead, you copy it from the website post.

Link URL:
After you click on the FB post, you will be taken to a blog post of a
website. The link URL is at the top of web browser. It starts with "https:"

Prepped Survivalist Blog Intro text:


This is the text of the website blog after the title and before the text of
the blog post that is being quoted. There will be an oversized quotation
mark that marks the end of the Prepped Survivalist Original Blog Intro text
and the beginning of the Prepped Survivalist Quoted Blog text.
The transition with oversized quotation mark looks like this:
Blog post logging assignment 04/17/17 Page 13 of 14

Prepped Survivalist Quoted Blog text:


Sometimes there will be a YouTube video in the Prepped Survivalist website
post instead of text. When there is text, the text will be from the other
website that was quoted in the Prepped Survivalist web post. This text will
be shifted slightly to the right of the rest of the text. When there is a
YouTube Video, put the URL of the YouTube video in this field of the
template. To get the URL of the YouTube video, right click on the video and
then click on "Copy Video URL". That puts the URL into the clipboard. Then
paste the URL of the video into this field.

Prepped Survivalist Blog ending text:


When there is a you tube video, this field is left blank. This is the
remaining blog text after the quote from the other website.
This part starts when the text moves back to the left. The arrow below
shows the transition between the quoted part and the Prepped Survivalist
Blog ending text.

Referenced blog post URL:


When there is a you tube video, this field is left blank. The referenced
blog post URL is the web address of the blog post that was quoted. The way
to obtain the referenced blog post URL is right click on the name of the
other website and then click on "Copy link address". That puts the URL in
clip board. You can then paste it into the template.
In the example above, the name of the other website is "Survival Cache".
