        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.settings);



        Preference pAppName = (Preference)findPreference("blog_intent");
        Preference pAppVersion = (Preference)findPreference("appinfo_intent");

        pAppName.setOnPreferenceClickListener(this);
        pAppVersion.setOnPreferenceClickListener(this);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onPreferenceClick(Preference preference)
    {

        if(preference.getKey().equals("blog_intent"))
        {

            startActivity(blog);
        }

        else if(preference.getKey().equals("appinfo_intent"))
        {
            Intent appinfo = new Intent(Settings.this, Appinfo.class);
