How to Add Metro Style Social Widget for Blogger
Posted on the 08 September 2013 by Mohammed39
Today I will give you a very nice addition to your blog and frankly I liked this widget a lot. It is a social networking sites widget on the form of Metro as in windows 8.
Adding the widget in Layout
1. Go to Blogger Dashboard → Layout → click on"Add a gadget".
2. Select "html/java script" and add the code given below.
<div class="metro-social">
<li><a class="fb" href="Your Facebook URL here"></a></li>
<li><a class="tw" href="Your Twitter URL here"></a></li>
<li><a class="gp" href="Your GooGle + URL here"></a></li>
<li><a class="fd" href="Your FeedBurner URL here"></a></li>
</div>
<style>
