What is the format to add to an Element14 Blog

Question

What is the process to update a Blog? Are Blog posts individual CREATES or Add to Comments?

I'm a novice at using a Blog. I have started the following Blog on Element14 The Road to Raspberry Pi4B/ PoE Hat RoadTest Review (Introduction) and would like to post an update. Do just use the Add A Comment button at the bottom of the post or do I CREATE a new Blog enter using the same title and then add the material there?

I can see pluses and minus for both approaches but would like to follow the norms for blogging. Can anyone provide a recommendation?

Sean,

It is possible to edit an existing blog. On the righthand side of the screen is an actions list and in it is an 'Edit' button/link. This allows you modify the blog.

I have used this feature to add updates to an existing blog (as have others). Depending on the amount of new material, I either append to the initial blog (small additions) create a new blog (large additions).

Thanks GB genebren . I'm trying to determine what constitutes a small or large change and then applying the criteria.

If you just keep editing a Blog post, what prevents it from becoming a running toilet?

I guess the decision points you choose to break posts. Hummm, I have to do some thinking about this.I'm trying to prevent the reader from endless scrolling. The Blog is on Pi4/PoE but I have a post on test criteria, another on cable specification, another on power requirements.
