Best way to use Blogger?Don't. I was so dissatisfied with their service (or lack thereof) that I don't use them anymore. If you turn your indextemplate page into a Blogger, you have to hand-code HTML on their website.IMO if you have to have a blog, link to it from your site. If you want to put news on your main page, just build it and update it on your own. Contrary to what Blogger says, it doesn't save you any time.

I used the JavaScript document.write trick at the moment so the news can be up when I want it to be. Apparently the "includes" don't work.------------------

I'm just curious as to how some people use blogger on their website...has anyone ever used that "insert" option thingie or do you guys mostly just link to the blogger page...?

Well, if the ftp was working for me I'd be able to show you, but I just redid my site design using blogger for news posts by putting the blogger page in an iframe on my site. An iframe is like a frame, but it's a floating frame that can go anywhere on your site. Go to hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey and look it up. I then modified the template to match my site design.
