First, I had to sign up for a free service called FeedBurner to publish my own feeds.
(To sign up for an account at FeedBurner, click on the top right link that says "Register" on the website's homepage and follow the instructions to set up an RSS feed for your blog.)
If you have Google Account, you don't need to create feedburner account since Feedburner is now part of Google. You can just go to http://www.feedburner.google.com/fb/a/myfeeds and login with your Google Account.
1. Click the Publicize tab.
2. Under Services, select Email Subscriptions
3. In Subscription Management, fill out the subscriber details.
4. Then copy (ctrl C) the subscription form code to use as a widget in Blogger.
5. Next, go to your Blogger Dashboard Layout and select Add a Gadget.
6. Choose HTML/Java Script and paste (ctrl V) the third-party code (widget) into the field (Give it a title OR NOT).
7. Save and then go back to Dashboard Layout to drag the new gadget to a preferred spot in your side bar.
8. Save again and then Preview your updated blog.
9. The Email subscription will appear in a neat little box, and you can gave it a test run.
Another job well done.
