Assignment Number 4: Widgets and HTML

 Widgets and HTML 

Today’s assignment is to dress up your site with related widgets and HTML. Some of you may already have discovered what these are and how to use them. For those who are

still getting their feet wet, go to your site and click on “design” in the upper right hand corner. Then

click on “layout” in the left-hand sidebar. 

You can choose from a variety of additions. You might wish to add photos on your sidebar, lists of links

to related blogs or websites, or an embedded video, hit map, or other relevant widget. If you are

embedding something from another site (such as a youtube video), you will have a chance to copy and

paste HTML in order to transfer the video, slideshow, or widget. To do this, simply copy the HTML from

the site where you have found the widget, then click “HTML/Java Script” as the sidebar element you

want to add. Put in your code and click “save.” 

Once you have added what you want to your sidebar, you can drag the items around as you wish. Then

click “Save Arrangement” and head back to your blog.
