Help Me, Blogger (Yeah)

When logged in users browse BlogSpot (which displays published view of users’ blogs), the site’s Header links to the user’s Dashboard, and to Sign Out. That is helpful. So, if you are reading someone else’s blog, you can jump right to your control panel aka ‘dashboard’ which lists and links to edit each of your blogs and profile. Here’s a screenshot:


But if you are viewing a BlogSpot page that you own (or to which you contribute), the Header links to “New Post,” “Customize,” and Sign Out. A link to Dashboard would be desirable here. Also, instead of, or next to, “New Post” there should be a link to “Edit Posts.” It is this link, which exists elsewhere in your dashboard, that displays the titles and previews and the # of comments of each of your posts, and has a button to ‘add new.’ A more suitable term is: ‘Manage Posts’ which conveys that you can edit/view existing posts as well as make an addition (The term 'Mangage: Links' exists on Dashboard).


Even if you contribute to just one blog, it would be convenient for the Header of the your blogspot page to link to ‘Manage Posts.’ And if you contribute to more than one blog, the link to ‘Dashboard’ would be of great help
