Blogger/Blogspot Tip: The Crash Test Dummy Blog

If you use blogspot, you'll want to try out new templates.  Here's the problem:  not all of them work very well.

The solution?  Make a "dummy blog" that you use soley for the purpose of testing new templates.  Set it up and load up the templates to see how they work.  Be sure you play around with the dashboard to see how well the template works. 

This has saved me a LOT of trouble.  Sometimes a template looks good but doesn't work well once you upload it.
