Add a Tweetmeme Button to Blogger

Since it took me a bit to figure out (it's more straightforward to do in WordPress, not surprisingly), here are the steps you need to follow to add a TweetMeme button to Blogger:

1) Insert the Tweetmeme code as explained here. Before you start banging your head against the wall, note the subtle checkbox (thank you Blogger!) you need to check to uncover the Widget Templates:



2) Then, you want to customize the username that appears by default when people click on your newly inserted Tweetmeme button. Nothing against @tweetmeme, but follow these steps to switch it to your own Twitter username (askmanny, in my case)

Save and VOILA!! Happy tweetmem-ing!
