So....here's how you add links to your sidebar - login to blogger and go to the "template" section of the blog you want to add a link to. (*note: when editing template, be careful about not accidentally typing random things in or accidently deleting stuff - you can totally mess up your site. I'd say, to be safe, first thing you do is select all of the text in your template [ctrl+a] and the copy it [ctrl+c] and paste it onto a notepad [ctrl+v] -then if something gets messed up, you can just paste what you had before you screwed everything up!)
So...scroll down to where it says "-- Begin #sidebar " Just below that, you'll see where I added a sidebar title that says " class="sidebar-title">Links to Cousins" Below that, you'll see where I added links to the other blogs.
And, basically, that's it. If you want to add more links or more sidebar categories, just copy and paste the same HTML and replace the titles, etc.
If you start playing with it too much, you'll probably screw things up, but I encourage you to go ahead and do that - it's the only way to learn...and, if you saved it before you started, you can always get it back to the way it was!
Oh - after you edit the template - click below on "save template changes" then above on "republish entire blog". There you go - happy blogging!

P.S. I left the link to Jed's blog out so that you can practice getting it on there! Good luck!
