Total Number of Posts and Comments - Blogger Gadget

You can add the total number of posts and comments as a blogger gadget. In your design page, add an HTML/Java Script gadget, and put in the following code:

<script style="text/javascript"> 
function numberOfPosts(json) {
document.write('Total Posts: <b>' + json.feed.openSearch$totalResults.$t + '</b><br>');
}
function numberOfComments(json) {
document.write('Total Comments: <b>' + json.feed.openSearch$totalResults.$t + '</b><br>');
}
</script>
<script src="http://PLEASEMAKEANOTE.BLOGSPOT.COM/feeds/posts/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=numberOfPosts"></script>
<script src="http://PLEASEMAKEANOTE.BLOGSPOT.COM/feeds/comments/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=numberOfComments">
</script>

Voila!

Don't forget to put in your blogger url.
