Calling my readers...

A few friends have added the "Recent comments" gadget onto their blogs. Not to be a copy cat, but I think it is a useful gadget...it allows readers to see whether I have responded to their comments. (I use e-mail notifications for comments so I always know when someone has commented...even on very very ancient posts :P )

But my problem is...I don't know where to put this gadget. I don't want to put it at the very top, because my "random post" gadget and "travel log" list have to be close enough to the top to be seen by new readers. (did you see them?? lol) The other gadgets are more like "extras"...for my more loyal readers who have read my longer posts, or who have scrolled all the way down.

So for now this "recent comments" gadget is here, at the very bottom of the page. I don't like it there...but I don't know where else to put it. Any suggestions? Between ... and ... ? Let me know...I don't promise to listen to you...but your opinion might help! :P

And another thing...the Photo Friday theme will be smack at the top of the sidebar, and I shall update it every week ;) (until I lose the semangat to carry on with the photo challenges...which will hopefully be in a very long time!)

  1. U can change the layout and have 2 sidebars (left n right) since your post area is not wide. It'll look better.

  2. Er, I don't think I can do that...this is a customised layout. :/ And also, use Ctrl+mousescroll to enlarge the page...that makes it look better (I don't know why the designer made the page design so narrow)

  3. Just like u, i am notified by e-mails each time i got a comment. AND, i make myself notified when i comment on someone else's blog. (the stalker part of me) ;P

    I agree with Patirizia about having 2 sidebars. hence i do have 2 sidebars. (wink !) readers can see all ur tools without having to scroll further down. try look for a customized layout on the net. there are plenty.

  4. Yeah, there are lots of layouts, I think...and a lot of new ones on Blogger itself. But getting a new one means redoing all my gadgets :/ And I'm kinda lazy :P (bad excuse, I know...but still a valid excuse! lol)
