Blogs that are on Blogger, WordPress or TypePad can now add the wonderful outbrain star ratings widget to their blog posts.

This ratings widget has been under a closed beta for some time but they finally made a public release today.

It's light, requires no registration and very intuitive - visitors can hover the mouse over the five stars and click any of them to rate your current blog post.

Even if you have a regular website that's not a blog, this ratings widget can be installed on your site as well.

You need such a rating widget to get feedback from all those reader who are subscribed to your blog aren't contributing to the discussion because they are probably too lazy to write a comment.

Give them a system like this ratings widget that requires no effort and they'll be happy to say if enjoyed or disliked reading your blog post.

Get Ratings Widget here. Developer Blog is here. If you are using Windows Live Writer to insert ratings in your blog posts, make sure you remove the link breaks from javascript else this may not work.

I'm struggling with CSS moving to a new template. I *almost* have it. The one issue is that I like to embed pictures, and blog using a bullet style.

I want the new CSS to work like this on my current blog.

But right now, this is happening, with the text shoved under the picture.

(It works fine in Firefox, but IE shoves the text below the image.)

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Good luck
