How do you make it so a new window pops up every time someone click on a link on your site??

Thanks a bunch!

I’m usually listening to something else already, so rather than have both playing at the same time while I try to figure out how to turn off the blog’s music, I just immediately leave the blog.

I definitely agree about the lack of navigation, too. If I can’t find my way around the blog, how am I supposed to read more than the one page?

I’m glad to hear that no one likes to “read more after the jump” because I was thinking about doing that on my blog. Guess I won’t!

I read above and it seems we are all in agreement with the music thing. I almost always have my volume on mute just so i don’t chance hearing someones music. Great post!

It never fails…I click on something that is being reviewed, mosey around the site a bit and then have to back up a zillion clicks just to get back to the blog I came from.

It’s been about a year since I’ve actually used blogger, but I’m pretty sure that is an option when you make a link. I know it is for WordPress and I’m especially anal to make sure I click the happy little box that means a new tab or window will be opened if someone clicks on a link in one of my posts.

I have spent hours searching the web for products that the blogger may have had for years and which are no longer available. Even when I leave a comment asking for more info, rarely am I answered. Aaaggghhh!

Visiting from cafemom…

I must admit, we’re guilty of one of the 10 things on your list (just 1) and we’ve got to fix it! Thanks again.

I am in the process of doing a complete overhaul on my blog so it is a mess right now. I am laying it all out on paper first and plan to have it totally revamped by mid-month. This is helping me think through things to make it better.
