Firstly, go to Dashboard --> Layout. Then, click " Add a gadget ".
Secondly, choose RSS. I use RSS because it's faster and you do not need any plugin.

Now you got to configure the RSS URL, simply type in your own blog URL address.
Like this.

I typed my own blog URL and it will detect it as RSS.
Don't forget to change the Title to "recent posts" or anything you wish such as "older posts" etc. You can choose how many posts you wanna show, dates and authors.

Voila! Your Recent Posts widget is almost done in less than 3 minutes.
I am sure you manage to master these few steps. Now, recent comments is much easier.
Do you notice the Change Feed URL? Hurry up! Click it!

You will see this link http://yourbloglink.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default.
Change the posts to comments.

Now, you'll see similar thing. Change the Title again and choose how many items you wish, dates and authors.

I suggest you put 'Recent Posts' as it's useful and let readers know if there is any latest post from you.

Wuah. blogger tutorial wei this..but. i'm using wordpress ady :P
haha...currently thinking of these two widgets as well. Actually before that I change my theme to the wordpress theme which has been converted into blogspot theme where the "recent comment" and "recent posts" are put in the column of well-designed area but then many errors occur. Maybe I just put the widgets without any design..make it simple..hmmm

other card like..er...atm card..or...debit card(visa)...acceptable?
