  I just registered for the free blog and I have been playing around wit the control panel but I am confused about few things.

  1) How do I post something that is only visible to me and NO ONE ELSE?

  2) How do I enable registration? Like if a user is viewing my blog, I want to allow them to register and post comments and stuff. I went to Settings >> General but I didn’t see any thing about enabling registrations. I understand I can go to Users >> Authors & Users to manually add users, but isn’t there a way to set it so users can automatically register if they come across my blog?

  3) How do I make some of my post only to be view by users that are logged in?
