For awhile this worked well. Then several people last week complained it failed to work and Blogorator lost their files. This also happened on my Blog, Blogs I am Following, and Blogorator failed to fix the issue after 5-days even though I notified them.<br />Note: It is important to remember that these 'Widgets' may not keep up with the latest technology by Blogs such as Google, Wordpress, etc. They are Third Party Program Designs.<br />Originally I selected this Rating System because it worked on both Blogs and Websites and rated the over all page (Blog or Site) versus the individual posting.<br />I am no longer endorsing Blogorator.<br />Website Users, Designers, Programmers, Administrators, and Blog Owners should avoid installing the Widget from Blogorator. <br /><br /><center><big>New Blog Rating Widget Tool</center></big><br /><big>Click on the LINK:</big><br /><b><big><a href="http://www.outbrain.com/" target="_blank"><big><big>Adding a Rating System to Your Blog</big></big></big></b></a><br />//// ~ \\\\<br />Before Starting please note that this Widget does not work on Websites / Web Pages.<br />If after registering the Widget and you are unable to go to 'Setting's to remove the 'Recommendations' remove the Widget from your Blog, sign-out and try installing the Widget later on.<br />//// ~ \\\\<br /><br />Follow these step by step instructions.<br />Note - Pay close attention, don't miss any steps.<br />Open the following and leave open till finished:<br />- Your email account for your Blog.<br />- Open Outbrain Website.<br />- When Outbrain loads your Blog, leave that open as well.<br /><br />Step # 1:<br />You are at the 'Outbrain' Homepage.

If you have a different type of Blog such as Wordpress it should take you to something similar.

The following steps will remove all the links beneath your Blog Rating. If you want these here, Stop, do not proceed any further.

I want to substitute a Picture for the Title on my Post. I have seen this done on other blogs. <br />How do you do this?<br /><br />A) Google blocks the use of HTML and JavaScript within its Title Block for Posts. To avoid using the Layout, and 'Edit HTML' function, there is a simple way to accomplish this. Just don't use the 'Title Bar' at all. Also, do not use the Link Bar if you have it enabled.<br />Place your picture at the top of the empty block where you would add any text, pictures, or video. I believe this will accomplish what you are trying to do. I recommend the picture image be 375 pixels wide x 55 pixels high.<br />Email Inquiries - 11<br /><br />See the picture below:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcXoNuDy0ckNFBdCO52YE17egchiY7VwjJGGRgNcRfB3GZhMHmv4lGD6W9nRvEZqlcgkYqZmgkCE7oR2KLK9FMdREkP1M2qnFSpXFTy8mBzO85usc-tmWofw8pFfnrmJrRR_UE4OKN4AAk/s1600-h/Picture4Title.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 285px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcXoNuDy0ckNFBdCO52YE17egchiY7VwjJGGRgNcRfB3GZhMHmv4lGD6W9nRvEZqlcgkYqZmgkCE7oR2KLK9FMdREkP1M2qnFSpXFTy8mBzO85usc-tmWofw8pFfnrmJrRR_UE4OKN4AAk/s400/Picture4Title.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436015094422324786" /></a><br /><br /><br />See the sample of how it's done and should look like.<br />Click on the Link:<br /><b><big><a href="http://testinggoogleblogs.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><big><big>Testing Google Blogs</big></big></a></b></big><br /><br /><br /><br />Most Recent Google Blog Award Winner:<br />The Google Blog Award Winner for Week Ending (w/e) February 06, 2010, for the best Blog or Website was...<br /><big><b>Click on the LINK below to see the Award Winner</big></b><br /><big><big><span style="font-weight:bold;"><A HREF="http://condomfacts.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Condom Facts</A></span></big></big><br /><br />Don't forget to vote for your favorite Blog or Site for the Google Blog Award, you can vote for yourself.

I am Following more people than are Following Me. How can I clean up my Twitter Page and get rid of all the dead beats to make room for legitimate Followers I want to add?<br /><br /><br />A) Twitter makes this quite hard for their users. First at the moment as a Twitter Page user you are only allowed to have 2,001 Tweets you can follow. However, there is no limit to the number of people who can follow you.<br />Fortunately, there are some third party software providers that can clean up your Twitter Page account. I experimented with two. One didn't work for me at all. <br />I found that using Tweepi is the best approach.<br />Email Inquiries: 24<br /><br />Just click on the Link and it will take you to the Tweepi Page.<br />First I have laid out a step by step illustration to walk you through how to use Tweepi and what each step will look like till you're finished.<br />If you have a high number of people you are following on your Twitter Page, say between 1,500 to 2,000 this process may take about an hour to complete. So allow enough time.<br /><br />Link:<br /><b><big><a href="http://tweepi.com/" target="_blank"><big>Tweepi Home Page</big></a></b></big><br /><br />First sign-in to your Twitter Page and see how many people your are Following and how many people are Following you.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPI8xad8sbpY1EgSbM5QkJKR8un7aJtVbawRUxGw5KtDZhICkud_Dp3-MixA3O3mOLpa2bGEkvZ7OiD8RX_PdzMOWoyWBIzyqsXDPj2a6HMG73GDs0sNSF88sA14gxe9aV2IIGdfvpddvC/s1600-h/Tweepi-01.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 375px; height: 215px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPI8xad8sbpY1EgSbM5QkJKR8un7aJtVbawRUxGw5KtDZhICkud_Dp3-MixA3O3mOLpa2bGEkvZ7OiD8RX_PdzMOWoyWBIzyqsXDPj2a6HMG73GDs0sNSF88sA14gxe9aV2IIGdfvpddvC/s400/Tweepi-01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431978015805058258" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />This is Tweepi main page.

Then the column to the far right, under 'Friend' you will see 'You're Following User.' At the top far right column, check the box 'Follow' all the boxes under 'Follow' should have a check mark. Next simply go to the bottom of the page and click on 'UNFOLLOW.' At this point, by default you will be loading 20 Followers at a time. If you click on the bottom box 'Tweet This' Tweepi will load 40 Followers at a time.

The Blog can be added later.<br />2) So you can Follow someone who all ready has a Google Blog using Google Friends Connect.<br />Email Inquiries: 19<br /><br />To create a Google only 'PROFILE' please follow these steps:<br /><br />1/ - If you do not all ready have an email account create one. You will need an email address. If you don't have an email address or want a separate email just for your 'Google Profile' then Gmail or Yahoo are probably the best options but there are others such as myway; msn; live; and hotmail.<br /><br />2/ - Write down the name you want to use for your Profile, example: blogsfollowme. I would recommend using this for the Blog Title as well.<br /><br />3/ - Go to the following Google Link-<br /><b><a href="https://www.blogger.com/start" target="_blank"><big>Create A Blog</big></a></b><br />See Picture Below:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtJG41x_Fdw9MiB4GIYVUj2dcqAMmgsceTuBWBpkYC7PoZLAlaTV7_En3qh3ChtfriAA0D86hz18dAOXUUPeAz58x_9vMPedaz2RdZoW57r-xeVAabSYSXOvGt3eDgu0XdSx-5CqYOylb4/s1600-h/Google+Profile-1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtJG41x_Fdw9MiB4GIYVUj2dcqAMmgsceTuBWBpkYC7PoZLAlaTV7_En3qh3ChtfriAA0D86hz18dAOXUUPeAz58x_9vMPedaz2RdZoW57r-xeVAabSYSXOvGt3eDgu0XdSx-5CqYOylb4/s400/Google+Profile-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428241529000771106" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />4/ - The following window appears, see picture below:<br />Fill in all the required information.<br />When finished click on 'Continue.'<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3JrShrfoJzJLq5OiP_DSK_Rtz21dO10R85eYtTWfojJ1ihlt8T69A-mwIwtjQnHVSFau5XN1AJiW_atbDamfhrUkgd4y85rMfU54gsXNYtNdDkHAXUaTbcoLFi52hoyZimiIKjbGjEp5p/s1600-h/Google+Profile-2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 375px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3JrShrfoJzJLq5OiP_DSK_Rtz21dO10R85eYtTWfojJ1ihlt8T69A-mwIwtjQnHVSFau5XN1AJiW_atbDamfhrUkgd4y85rMfU54gsXNYtNdDkHAXUaTbcoLFi52hoyZimiIKjbGjEp5p/s400/Google+Profile-2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428241723976188946" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />5/ - You will get another page.

Can you tell me how to upload movies from my desktop or computer file folder using the NEW Post Edit Format?<br /><br />A) Explanation for Problem-<br />If you have a Google blogspot Blog and it is more than year a old you probably haven't even noticed that Google offers two settings for the Post Edit function (Adding a New Post to your Google Blog). New Blog owners will notice because some templates default to the 'New' format shown as Updated Editor, under Settings, at 'Select Post Editor.' Anyone can update their Blog to the new setting. <br />The problem with the 'New' Post Editor the functions are more like something you find in a Word Text file such as Microsoft Word. They do have a place to upload pictures, same as the old format. The problem is they have omitted the Icon Function to upload a movie / video. You can still copy and paste online videos such as YouTube, LiveLeak, etc. You can also link to a video post online and the video will function, but if the link is removed or lost the video on your blog is gone.<br />Google is still developing this New Format, but they have to be aware that the Icon for uploading a Video is not there.<br />My guess is that they omitted it on purpose. There can be several reasons for this, among them are:<br />1) Google doesn't want to be involved with someone uploading property that belongs to someone else, even though videos usually embed their owner's name and URL Address so credit s given.<br />2) Bandwith and data storage are the main reasons I am sure. Videos take up a lot of storage space and with millions of Google Bloggers all over the world, this becomes very costly. Remember your Blog is Free!<br />3) Google owns YouTube and wants t promote its use.<br /><br />Solving the Problem-<br />In the interim, use the old editor (original) Post Edit Format if you upload videos from your computer. You can switch back and forth for now between editor formats.<br />If your video/movie is an original, then upload it to YouTube or another service similar to YouTube like LiveLeak.<br />Eventually Google will have to make a determination to either add a video icon for uploads or not, but the new Post Editor Format will become the norm with no option.<br />For long term, if you do not want to create a YouTube like video, then you may have to use another Blog or Social Network that allows video uploads. <br />See pictures below for further clarification.<br />Email Inquires: 4<br /><br />The New Post Editor Format-<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg00TiO4w0fvw0tcJkHF358u6WfWZbKerq9fW463riOs8KWzX5QuEpzr5Z1xFPTR6QPkUPM_cLTW54-eSCxueaYTLrfDyDUb8LiB1r2hxk3-ntOxrkhjwydFJF7-FcBnkuYi6PyNTSw2sFJ/s1600-h/NewSettings1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer;

Try this as one option, it's easy to install and use. It seems to work well as a supplement to Google Friends Connect. You can have more than one Social Community Network on a Blog or Website.<br />Click on the LINK to start the installation of The BlogFrog:<br /><b><big><a href="http://www.theblogfrog.com/" target="_blank">The BlogFrog</big></b></a><br /><br />When you go to The BlogFrog Website you get a page that looks like this.<br />Just select 'Sign Up.'<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBbbDERGLaMPuT_9VKfX7CJqvROV3hjfiCPB3GMvmV4hGrKJl6aOs_yyOEJa3FalRcP4PQirycV0VOoi92btn49oBtvU4Z2clreACw9sFe5I2cQCLCXk46nkvXaveK3ARi77P5YCGQ8EIO/s1600/BlogFrog-1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 375px; height: 238px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBbbDERGLaMPuT_9VKfX7CJqvROV3hjfiCPB3GMvmV4hGrKJl6aOs_yyOEJa3FalRcP4PQirycV0VOoi92btn49oBtvU4Z2clreACw9sFe5I2cQCLCXk46nkvXaveK3ARi77P5YCGQ8EIO/s400/BlogFrog-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410237526959257330" /></a><br /><br /><br />Once you click on 'Sign Up' this pop-up window appears.
