 * DO you guys thing that is possible to float the post title in a way that is gonna
   appear inside the post instead of on top?
    this picture should give an idea of
   what I’m try to do.

 * I was thinking to wrap the post title tag in a div and then float it and position
   it above the post content but I’m unsuccessful.
 * Thanks to everyone.

 * Absolutely it can. It’s just a matter of CSS. If I used the default theme files
   as an example, the output would be:
 *     ```
       <div class="post">
       <h2>post title here</h2>
       <small> date here</small>
       <div class="entry">
       stuff here
       </div>
       <p class="postmetadata">more stuff here
   
       </div>
       ```
   
 * That’s your basic output. If you change it slightly by placing a div around the`
   <h2>` and `<small>` tags, and then placing that *inside* of the entry div, you
   just give it a width and float it left. Done.
