Blogger is full of pr0n!

As I was sitting here bored one night, I decided to hit 'next blog,' thinking I would see some interesting ideas for blog sights. What I found was really disturbing. At any given time, you are only about 2-3 clicks away from really awful 'adult material.' I told my friend about it, and her husband (a computer programmer) figured out a solution. Here is his last blog entry in his own blog:

If you use blogger you have probably noticed the “next blog” link at the top of your blog. If you have ever clicked these you would notice that 2-3 clicks are you are neck deep in adult material (aka pornography). When I found this out I immediately made the switch to WordPress without hesitation. WordPress is better overall than blogger and has only a marginally higher learning curve.

If you really like blogger you can remove the navigation links by editing your blogger template code.

1. Log in to your blogger blog
2. Click the Template tab
3. Click the Edit HTML link
4. Paste the following code (in red) into the top of the template:

———————————————–
*/

#navbar-iframe {
display: none !important;
}

/* Variable definitions
====================

Click the Preview link to make sure you didn’t break anything and save your changes.

I followed these instructions and it removed the entire top bar of my blog. I then was confused because I didn 't know how to post a blog entry. To post a blog entry, simply go to blogspot.com and sign on. It will allow you to do it from there.
I am also thinking about switching to Worldpress, and will probably do so in the next month. Just the fact that the 'pr0n' is so prominant means there are just hundreds of thousands of really bad sights on blogspot. Evidently this has been an issue with the company since the beginning, but blogspot refuses to do anything about it.
