Here’s another nifty (albeit still beta so use at your own risk and don’t blame me if your blog goes poof!) addition to Blogger: you can now add Google Gadgets to your layout.
For that, go to draft.blogger.com, and modify your Layout. There’s several new Page Elements you can try out, among which you’ll find Google Gadgets, select it, search for Warcraft and pick whatever you like.
Important note, there are some quirks around all these which require some settings for the time being, so make sure you try several options to save your settings, whether it is in the gadget’s config or the overall layout.
If nothing is currently wrong with the connection, you should have a sample by going to the very bottom of Altitis and seeing my current main pallie’s armoury in there.

Thanks for the great tip Altitis! Where *do* you come up with this great info?
Your gadget isn’t showing anything at the moment, but I think the problem is with the Armory site itself, I can’t get the page to load in FF and it causes IE (7!) to hang so bad I need to kill it via the task manager…
Update - I see your gadget loading now and the wowarmory site is finally loading, so I guess the problem was solved.
However I would suggest you move the gadget to a separate page, because the armory takes so long to respond it causes your main page to load and load and load and load… while getting the armory data, kinda annoying.
