I just opened a new blog for anyone who uses Blogger. It is called Tips 4 Blogspot and will feature posts about wading thru widgets, layouts and other features of both the New Blogger and Classic style.
My first tutorial is up -- How to add pseudo-Categories to the sidebar. It has the basic building blocks of how the category list was set up on blog itself.
