Setup A Mobile Version of Your Blog

These days, not all of the visitors on your blog use desktop or laptop to browse the contents. The number of people browsing the internet using their mobile phones is increasing. This maybe due to the new technologies added to the newer mobile phones of today. Also the increasing availability of "hot spots" or wi fi provided in public places like cafe's, bars, restaurant, malls, schools.

This availability is very convenient for internet users as they can surf the internet anywhere wi fi is available with no costs. If unavailable, network providers always offers mobile internet connections at a price.

Relief Efforts in Haiti Facing Logistical Difficulties

After waiting for a couple of days, relief goods and aid started pouring Thursday. But it seems the Haiti people still have to wait a little longer for the supplies because relief and humanitarian teams are having difficulties reaching places. Most of the roads are still impassable and available ones are narrow, sea port was  closed because it was severely damaged from the quake, The only available airport was also damaged so it can't handle the volume of incoming aid flights. All the incoming aid can only be delivered by sea or air.

Hide LinkWithin On Your Homepage In Blogger



Link Within is a free and very useful widget bloggers can have on their blogs to display related posts with a thumb-shot of an image if any, just below every posts.

Blogger Post Summaries the easy way


Post summary is very useful if you write very long posts and you wanted to display just short teaser sentences on your homepage and it also brings a bit of ease to your visitors cause they won't have to scroll so far down just to scan your home page.

To do this you have to at least know a little about coding html/css, or at can really follow the instruction on the tuts. You have to add some
