Add Windows Live Messenger to your website or blog

Today i was searching around for stuff to add to my blog when i came across this cool add in for Windows Live Messenger.

Now you are probably asking your self how and where do i go do add that to my website or blog. Well, it is very simple, all you need to do is:

  • Go to Windows Live Settings
  • Choose the control you want to display
  • Copy and paste the html code into your site

Note: If you are unable to copy the code, then go here and select the checkbox & click save. Then go back here.

Yepiee!!! More people can disturb you when you are already busy working!! Tongue out

Setting up Gmail smtp on BlogEngine.NET

This was the first issue i ran into while setting up this blog.

Open up the web.config file
Change:  <trust level="High" />
To: <trust level="Full" />

User the following settings in the BlogEngine control panel
SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com
Enable SSL: true
Port: 465 or 587

Save the settings and now you should have your Gmail account hooked up your blog!
