How to add Read More link to feedburner feed

Normally the feed sent by our blog or website displays the entire article that we post. The readers are able to read the entire article and they never visit our site. To avoid this we can display a short summary on the feed and place a "Read More" link at the end of the article so that they visit our website. We can do this by using "FeedFlare" service in Feedburner. The steps you have to follow is given below.

• Download "read_more.xml" Click to download the file.
• Upload the file to your own server, Copy the file URL.
• If you dont know how to upload to a server, use this URL http://www.hiddencomputertricks.co.cc/read_more.xml This is the link of the file in my server.
• Login to your feedburner account.
• Select your feed.
• Go to optimize tab.
• Now, Under services, Click on FeedFlare.
• In the field provided for new Flare paste the URL of the "read_more.xml" file.
• Click on "Add New Flare"
• Now, place a check mark for "Read More" which will be the new Flare you just added.
• Click save.
• Now click on summary banner at the left panel.
• Make necessary changes and click on save. (Teaser is the short line which will appear at the end of the article, followed by "Read More" link.)

Now only a summary will be sent to your feed subscribers.

How to add space between words in a blogger post

Ave you ever tried to keep more than one space between two words. If no try first. Blogger does not allow you to add more than one space between two words. Even if you try pressing space-bar hundred times, it will not work.
Below words are separated with 10 spaces:
Vinod          Vinod

Now coming to the point, there are two ways to do this:

• Using non-breaking space (&nbsp;)
• using pre tag (<pre> </pre>)

To add any number add spaces, put that many number of (&nbsp;) between those words.
Eg: Copy and paste the following code in your post:
Vinod&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Vinod

Now, well try the second method:
Using pre tag, we can add space with your Space-bar itself. Now, you can add hundred spaces with your Space-bar.
Try This: Vinod<pre>                   </pre>Vinod

Note: All these tricks have to be done in Edit Html tab of create post. After doing this trick, do not go to Compose tab. Otherwise, again there will be only one space.
Enjoy blogging!!!
