You can remove the blue Blogger
navigation bar that is at the top of each page by adding a single line
of CSS to the skin of your blog.
From your dashboard go to the Layout | Edit HTML screen and scroll down to the skin part of the blog.

some new ideas that really need some investigation.

We
can tweak the Blogpost Widget, so that it displays only posttitles when
we are on the Blog Homepage, and full posts when we are on an Item

I taught you how to remove the ugly Blogger navbar from the screen. One
minor setback is that now you don't have access to your dashboard,
settings, layout and posts, because the navbar is gone.

If this doesn't ring a bell, don't worry. Remember the Hansl &
Gretchen fairy-tale?
Hansl and Gretchen were 2 kids from a very
poor family. The parents were so poor that they had nothing to feed
their children, and between them decided to take the kids into the
forest and leave them to the wild animals.

appreciated) BlogTOC widget have mentioned the long load times of their

Then it is time to get acquainted with Plaxo and Yahoo! Pipes.
Again, as in many other Widgets I have created, the Widget might be of
little practical use. But it has an educational purpose as well: it

without having any success to develop a decent piece of programming to
