I updated the blog with new template thanks to Template Novo Blogger There are lots very good templates avaialble there. The site is in Portuguese. Used Google translate to see a version in english. Though many words will be still in portuguese, its enough to understand the instructions.
I did following modifications to the content.
At the top there are two place holders for the list of links. Included recent posts and recently read list.
Detailed explaination for including recent posts or recent comments can be found at Eblog templates
If you are using google reader, a script can be found at Settings -> Floders & Tags ->Add clips to your site. But the styles were not gelling with overall site. So used feed URL and added a feed gadget again to the template. Feed URL is nothing but reader/shared replaced with reader/public/atom in the link of public page of any folders you are sharing through google reader.
Edited links to feed icon, favourite the blog on technorati and digg option.
Next thing was finding a host for the images. Files uploaded via blogger are available as album in picasa but it when you open the album there is no link to upload the files directly. There were two options to upload the files create a dummy post or use the upload link in the first page clicking which a popup containing list of album is shown. I used the later option. If you are using the same option remember to remove file resizing path(such as /s144/ or /s288/) from the link provided by Picasa.
I have got more modifications to make such as showing tags as cloud. Now its taking lot of real estate.
