What Can I Do In Bulb?
Set your Profile:
- Add a cover image. Note the large pixel requirement. I recommend using Pixabay, Photosforclass or Unsplash to find large images that can be used without citation (you always want to be conscious of copyright).
- Add a profile picture or Avatar. For using with colleges, it is best to use an actual photo of yourself. Remember that when sharing a personal photo with personal information, you want to closely regulate access to that information and only allow specific people with the link to see it.
- Type a 140 word description
Create a page:
Log into Bulb. Scroll down and select the blue button that says Use Template. Click Ok on the pop up window confirming that you want to make a copy of the template.
To publish and control sharing- click the Publish button at the top right of the page. Click on the blue button that says Create Private Share Link. This will generate a link to that page or collection that you can send to specific people or entities without making all of your personal information public.
Create a Collection:
A collection is simply a group of pages. You can create a collection inside a collection. It is possible to share a single page or a single collection with someone using a link.
