Hi. Me again with a technical question I’m sure I’ve bothered folks about before. I finally thought I had it figured out, but then I came up against another stumbling block. What the hell am I talking about, you wonder. Well, for ages and ages now I’ve wanted to do a little sidebar-y link thing over there on the right with a list of books I’ve recently read. I want to call it… (wait for it)… “Recent Reads.” And I thought it would be cool to have images there too, of book covers or author photos, or whatever. But I don’t want to have to go into blogger and update the template every time I read a new book.
I thought I might be able to just get a new blogroll, but I can only apparently have one blogroll at a time. Wah. So… does anyone know if there are other useful listy things out there I can use? Thanks!
I’m sure that I ran across some sort of cool site that you could note this sort of thing (probably with an Amazon ASIN) and then have stuff automagically appear in your sidebar, but I don’t know where it went to. Hrm. I’ll keep digging.
That would be very very cool. Thanks, Dave!
I’d love to hear, too. I feel my sidebar is somewhat inadequate compared to the sidebars of others. That’s right; I have sidebar envy.
Ok, I think I found something. It’s called Blogfuel, and it’s over there on the sidebar. Thoughts? Do we like the placement? Want it higher? I can’t figure out how to only have the jacket images and not the titles, but that’s peanuts compared to figuring it all out in the first place.
