You will have to find and download similar widgets or plugins to gain the full capability available here.

As far as the basic dashboard, it is nearly the same except for the .COM specific sections.

It's more or less the same, but you'll need to add things like stats packages, and various bits and bobs depending on what you want to do with your blog.

My query now changes to..........

Two hopefully quick questions:

I would like to add a subdomain to my blog and I think the solution is to simply purchase another domain as follows:

http://www.EXAMPLE.thebetfairfootballtrader.com

1) Am I correct in this assumption?

2) Is it possible to create an A record?

Thanks & sorry for being dumb :-)
