How to add Follow Me On Twitter to a Blogger blog

I know I'm a slow adopter of these things and many of you may snigger that I'm only just getting round to some of this stuff, but for those of you who haven't done it yet ... these are the exact steps to adding a Follow Me On Twitter link to your Blogger blogs.

On your Blogger Dashboard,  select the Blog you want to modify
 
then select Layout and choose where you want to place the button


I chose to add mine at the right by selecting Add a Gadget in that area

From the Basics section in the resulting dialog, choose  HTML/JavaScript gadget
 
In the Configure HTML/JavaScript dialog, provide a Title and paste the following code into the Content box, changing the "automation_man" text to the name of your twitter stream.


Code to copy and paste
<a class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="true" href="http://www.twitter.com/automation_man"></a> <script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>

 Save and this will take you back to the layout where you can Preview / Save arrangement and its done !
