People are always curious about how to use maximum space on blogger. The default templates are very simple and disgusting. We need something new after all. So take any template from blogger or another where you can get blogger compatible templates. And then do changes as per the instructions.
First goto your HTML template code and save it in your machine before starting changes.
Find #header-wrapper {
in your HTML code
Change value for width like width:860px; if its small value.This will make your blog's width wide and gives you more space fro your content and ads.By default width is about 660 pixels.
Find
#outer-wrapper {
width: 860px;
margin:0 auto;
padding:10px;
text-align:left;
font: $bodyfont;
}
#main-wrapper {
width: 410px;
float: left;
word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */
overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float */
}
#sidebar-wrapper {
width: 210px;
float: right;
word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */
overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float
*/
}
#left-sidebar-wrapper {
width: 210px;
float: left;
word-wrap: break-word;
overflow: hidden;
}
and colored lines are changes or new additions. here left-sidebar-wrapper is for new sidebar. I have changed the widths as per total width of 860 pixels. For example 2 sidebars, each of 210 pixels(by default it is 220) and main post column is of 410 pixels.
Find <div id="content-wrapper"> and add below code after this line
<div id="left-sidebar-wrapper">
<b:section class="sidebar" id="sidebar1" preferred="yes">
</b:section>
</div>
Now save your template and goto Layout tab.
You will get new sidebar in design. Then you can add your new widgets in it. Use your whole blog.manage all your data as you wish. You can make it more wider if you need.

All the electronic devices are based on electricity. And when you run out of battery that’s a big problem. I mean, it happens when you need the device mostly. However, this problem seems to be eradicated once the Betavoltaic batteries will enter the scene.
The scientists form U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory have discovered the miracle of producing energy for 30 years without recharging. The secret - the Betavoltaic batteries that are constructed from semiconductors and use radioisotopes as the energy source.
The batteries are not nuclear as you may think so. The energy is produced when an electron strikes a particular interface between two layers of material. The scientists assure us that no radioactive or chemical reactions are produced during the process. That’s why these batteries won’t be an environmental problem. After their life cycle the Betavoltaic batteries are totally inert and non-toxic.
Probably in a few years we could use them without problems. So, think a little about the great advantage of non-charging your laptop around 30 years. First you won’t need regular energy power. And second, you will need a cool laptop because in so many years it will be outdated.
Security experts have discovered vulnerabilities in OpenOffice.org that could allow attackers to remotely execute code on Linux, Windows or Apple Mac-based computers. OpenOffice version 2.0.4 and earlier versions are vulnerable to maliciously crafted TIFF files, which can be delivered in an e-mail attachment, published on a Web site or shared using peer-to-peer software. The next version of OpenOffice (version 2.3) arrived on September 17 and is not affected by the flaw. The vulnerability was discovered by researchers at iDefense, who claim that the OpenOffice TIFF parsing code is flawed.
"When parsing the TIFF directory entries for certain tags, the parser uses untrusted values from the file to calculate the amount of memory to allocate. By providing specially crafted values, an integer overflow occurs in this calculation. This results in the allocation of a buffer of insufficient size, which in turn leads to a heap overflow," the iDefense team reported last Friday. TrustDefender co-founder Andreas Baumhof said: "This vulnerability allows someone to execute malicious code on your computer. It's an OpenOffice bug so it doesn't matter what type of operating system you run; it allows you to run malicious software with the same rights as the user who runs OpenOffice." "At this stage, it's only confirmed on Linux," Baumhof said. "But typically it would affect all operating systems. The only difference with Linux and Windows is that home users typically run Windows as the administrator."

The guys from The Pirate Bay are always working on interesting side-projects, but there is one in particular that’s so significant, it might be the future of filesharing. For a while now, they have been working on a brand new protocol - which may come to replace BitTorrent in the near future. Why a new protocol? Well, the current BitTorrent protocol is developed and maintained by BitTorrent Inc. This company, founded by BitTorrent inventor Bram Cohen, recently decided to close the source of some newer additions to the protocol. According to The Pirate Bay, this gives them too much power and influence.
