How to put a gadget above your blog's header

This article is about how to put an item (any type of gadget) above the Title section in a blog made with Google Blogger.



If your blog has a layout or designer template, then (almost?) all of Blogger's templates start out with a nav-bar at the top of the screen, followed by a Header section showing your blogs title & description, or a custom header image if you've uploaded one.

And even if you go into the place in the layout-designer where you can re-arrange the layout by drag-and-dropping items, you cannot drag any gadgets to above the header.

But this is easy to change, provided you are willing to accept the disadvantages of editing your blog's layout template.


How to allow changes above your blog's header

Follow these steps to make it possible for you (or any blog administrator) to add gadgets to the area about your blog's heading section:

Edit your blog's template in the usual way

2  Find this code in your template:
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'>
<b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='YOUR BLOG TITLE(Header)' type='Header'/>
Hint:  use the template-editor search tool, to look for a key phrase like "id='Header1'

Change it to
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='4' showaddelement='yes'>
<b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='YOUR BLOG TITLE(Header)' type='Header'/>
Notice that there are two changes made:
  • Setting maxwidgets to greater than 1, and
  • Setting showaddelement to Yes, instead of No


Job Done:   after you have successfully saved this change, then the next time you edit your blog layout  (Dashboard > Layout  ), then you will find that you can add or drag-and-drop up to three gadgets to the Heading section of the blog, making a total of four.

You can add even more gadgets by changing the number for maxwidgets to something else.

How to use Picasa-web-albums without being re-directed - August 2016 update

This article explains what has happened to Picasa-web-albums, why it is now re-directing to Google Album Archive, and what you can do about it.

Back in July 2013, I described how many people who started Picasa-web-albums were being immediately re-directed to Google+ photos and what they could to to return to using PWA again without being re-directed.

Quite a few things have changed in the last three years - and especially in the last six months or so.   In particular, Google have:
  • Changed their strategy around Google+
  • Released Google Photos and retired Google+ Photos
  • Changed the Picasa-web-albums re-direct to go to Google Photos instead of Google+ Photos
  • Stopped supporting Picasa (announcement)
  • Stopped supporting Picasa-web-albums (announcement)
  • Released a new tool called Google Album Archive, which gives you access to photos, photo-albums and data about photos that you created in Blogger (and other Google tools) - which isn't available in Google Photos.
  • Changed the re-direct on Picasa-web-albums, so that it goes to Google Album Archive instead of to  Google Photos.

That is why you see this:

How to stop Picasa-web-albums from re-directing to Google Album Archive

Bad news:    As Google's Album Archive product is turned on around the world, and specifically once it is turned on for your, there is no way to to use Picasa-web-albums, without being sent to Google Album Archive.

Our only option is to use to Google Photos directly, or to work with pictures only through Blogger's post-editor.



Is there a problem with using Google Album Archive and Google Photos instead of Picasa-web-albums?

There are posts on help-forums etc from people who are unhappy about this change:   Picasa-web-albums and Picasa-desktop had a number of features which Google have simply decided not to provide in Google Photos.   These features include:
  • Making slideshows and putting them into blog-posts or websites.
  • Embedding Picasa Web albums and photos in blog-posts or websites.
  • Linking to photos, albums, and Public Galleries which an URL that contains your usename 
  • Photo tags, tagging people, likes, +1's, and Picasa Web comments. 
  • Making slideshows.
  • Following people based soley on their photo collection
  • Viewing public galleries.

People who used those features didn't want to lose them, and they certainly see a problem with the changes.  Personally, I think that things are a little more nuanced.  

  • There is one particular missing feature (not listed above that I'm annoyed to have lost - but I've found a work around, and will be writing a post showing how to use it as soon as I've finished this one.
  • There is a lot of detail behind what you can and cannot do in Album Archive - and why certain actions are and aren't available.   This isn't always consistent with the documentation - eg the documentation says that we can delete photos in Album Archive, but I've got at least one album / photo with no delete icon showing.   Other people have reported that they had albums which aren't showing up in their Album Archive.     Some are unhappy because they cannot create new albums, only work with ones that they've already made.    

But for all that, I haven't yet found a total show-stopper issue that stops me from using the Google tools to work with images for my blogs.    Have you?

The Danger of Identity Theft



Any business owner or even every single person should be well-conscious of the current state of identity theft. And we all must know how important it is to to protect your customers and your own business from fraud to maintain its well-known reputation and stable development.

What is identity theft?

Identity theft is defined as the fraud of someone to make money from using your confidential document or illegally enter any transaction under your identity. An example can be the “credit card cloning”. The culprit may use someone else’ information and apply for credit cards, bank accounts to buy items through the Internet, One other of the most common identity theft cases is tax fraud and scams that may be greatly damaging under any tax season no matter how safe and secured your personal info is. Specifically, the identity thieves use made-up Social Security Numbers (SNN) randomly and file the tax forms to try to claim any possible return. And sadly, the chances of being the random victim can be you.

The consequences can be terrific and time-consuming for anyone, which which can lead to nonstop amount of unknown debts, bankruptcy, etc. Even worse, solving your identity theft case or reversing the harm from the fraud is also as troublesome as it can go for years to settle.

Facts of Identity Theft

Frank Agagnale once said, ‘the police can't protect everyone. Individuals should be more mindful and instructed about identity fraud or theft. You should be a little bit wiser, and smarter; plus, nothing is wrong with being skeptical. We live in a world where if you make it easy for someone to steal from you, they will eventually.’ And I believe this always stays true. Up until now, there have been over 8,513,000 identity theft victims worldwide, which is happening every two seconds. Identity theft is a growing serious issue in the United States which has risen alarmingly over the last decades. Another surprising fact is that currently, medical sector has been on top of those that have data stolen by identity thieves since five years ago. Hence, protecting your own health insurance is as crucial as your SSN.

How do you protect your identity from being theft?

This question must be constantly asked right after the frightening facts above have been shown.Fortunately, there are many easy and effective ways to protect yourself. First of all, having the  best paper shredders  can be the foremost solution to dispose of any sensitive information and that info will stay safe and secured within your organization. Other possible ways can be regularly checking your credit reports to let your bank know about any suspecting spending amount, strengthening your passwords and well securing any of your contact information or important accounts. Personally, I would recommend that you change your passwords for any highly-secured accounts every 6 months. Also, you should be smart and wary in using social media because there have been plenty of scams online. Social media has become tremendously so popular that even a company will look at the profiles of their job candidates through those media sites. Hence, people tend to upload most of their personal data but forget that they themselves make it easier for scammers to duplicate their information.

By implementing these steps, any top secret documents such as employee files, social security numbers, banking details, medial insurance information, and addresses cannot be stolen and frauded. If you can secure yourself first, the chance of the information being stolen can be surely eliminated. And your company can avoid being sued for violating regulations on information protection. Likewise, Bill Nelson once said, “If we don’t act now to safeguard our privacy, we could all become the victims of identity theft”.

Criminals look at identity theft and say only 1 in 700 criminals gets convicted of it. And they look at check forgery and they know that for every 1,400 forgers arrested, only about 123 get convicted and about 26 go to jail. So the rewards are great, but the risks are very slim. So that's one of the reasons that make it very popular.


How Will Technology Change The World?


Almost a decade before, none of us had predicted we will be tech-savvy to an extent that would astonish us all. Today, we all have smartphones in our hands, internet in every corner of the world, we can communicate, can eat, can travel and drive, can do online shopping and many more impressive technological innovations are on their ways to invade the world. Education has become easier, communication improved, the world turned into a global village, and it will be a big injustice if we don’t expect much better in the offing. According to the United Nations sources, in 2050 the world will be accommodating 9.7 billion people- that mean more loads on the planet, more severe problems, and more energy crisis but there is few ways technology will revolutionize the contemporary world. Let’s have a look at what is more in the next episode.



Balloon Internet

Though most parts of the world are provided with internet access and the 4th generation is spreading rapidly to serve the world all around, there are so many underdeveloped countries with such areas with no access to the internet. Provision of the internet on such large scales will require building infrastructure and the finance is a bigger hurdle on the way. To overcome the very issue and promise equity in providing the internet, the internet giant, Google is planning to bring balloons that will be called balloon internet.
The work has kicked off, and some countries like Sri Lanka and India are benefiting from this installation by Google. 2015 observed and experienced many practices, and 2016 will see much more in the offing as well. Thus, it can be generalized, the internet scarcity will be handled ultimately, and it will indeed change the world in upcoming years.

Food Shortage Will No Longer Be a Problem

The technology in the offing will be more fruitful in obtaining more crops and combat the traditional food production methods. It will become easy to produce genetically-modified crops in the house as well. That means the pest and environmental issues regarding food will be achieved and we will be getting sustainable and healthier foods.

Artificial Neural Networks

Artificial neural networks on their way to impress the world but there would be much bigger soon as well. These are the stimulated brains used in the traditional computers. Thus, these can be used to tackle the problems that we can never solve. In short, these ANNs will be in the limelight in the future. These are being used nowadays by Facebook to detect photos, by shipment companies for route identifications and credit card companies use them to find out frauds.

Social Purchasing

Social purchasing is not a new thing in the commerce but Facebook offered a sort of social buying through its ads, and so did Pinterest. All this leads to more demands and more purchasing opportunities in the future. Rather than the paid ads and posting, the content marketers will have to look forward to getting more sustainable ways. The only left solution is influence marketing, but that again carries paid marketing through influential personalities. However, influence marketing can also be done via collaboration, and this will become the future choice of every marketer.

Digital Networking

Nowadays, though, the global internet provision is managing all the resources and facilitating the world, in the offing, we will observe how the wireless networks will take over the digital networking. The time is near and only till 2025 cars, home appliances, and everything will be digitally connected. Technology will be stored for future consumptions and in one or the other way, energy crisis will be managed at all.

Augmented Reality

Virtual and augmented reality has reached and reshaped the content consumption. Facebook, one of the best and most social media forums, owns VR and using it all over the world. We will be able to see more products based on virtual and augmented realities.

Final Thoughts

We can expect everything from age reversing to overcoming food scarcity and a hell more is all awaited for the future lifestyles. This is time to brace ourselves for these innovative technological advancements. In short, technology will present the current world into a much modified version sooner or later.
