Flag Counter
In class we added a Flag Counter to my blog to see what kind of results I would get. I have had only America visit my blog so far. The counter has not been active that long though. This counter will tell you the country and who has visited your cite.
Feedjit is basically the same thing as Flag Counter except it has some different features that Flag Counter does. One of the different features is that it has a live feed one your blog when you put it on your blog.

Blogger on the iPad is really user friendly. It's is almost identical to the desktop version, but there are some differences. First of all you can't customize the iPad version as well as the desktop version. Second there is no way to add or play gadgets. This is because the iPad isn't supported by flash. Those are the main differences between the two.

Blog Gadgets
I explored some gadgets on blogger. Gadgets are devices you can put on your blog to help customize it. The first one I explored was the calendar. This one will help you keep track of events and days on your blog. The second one I saw was a virtual animal gadget. There were different types of animals. This gadget pretty much just wastes time and has no real use. The third one I looked at was a running game. This was were you typed the arrow keys to make your guy run. This one wastes time too. The fourth one was a game where you have to escape a star ship. Using your ability to geuss. The last one was blog counter that makes anybody who visits your blog now know how many others have looked at it.
