How do I embed links into words.
I don't know if that's what it is called, but you know what I'm talking about? The word(s) becomes the link, you don't see the web adress? I've always wondered how you do that. :shrug:

7. Hiii!
It's going good. I just had to call my boss, she forgot that I'm going to Boston, so I won't be able to meet her on Saturday the 23rd. Silly girl. :D

3. Like this
<link:"put the url in quotes"|here are the words you want to be the link>

Use square brackets ][ instead of pointys >< for DU. Also the pipe symbol | is shift-backslash. Have fun.

10. Hmmm. Let me see
I'll try to post a link to my blog here. Testing...

Aha! Leave off the quotation marks. Write it like this inside the square brackets:

(square bracket)link:roachblog.blogspot.com|my blog(square bracket)

Worked for me!
