Define your own footline, e.g.:

\usepackage{tabularx}
\setbeamertemplate{footline}{
  \colorbox{blue}{\color{white}
     \begin{tabularx}{0.98\textwidth}{|X|X|X|}
          insertlogo & 
          \hfill\insertshortauthor\hfill\phantom{.} & 
          \hfill\insertshorttitle\\
      \end{tabularx}
}
}

You can build anything you like within the template definition, so you
don't need to use tabularx, but could do something simple like
(untested)

\centerline{\insertlogo\hfill\insertshortauthor\hfill\insertshorttitle}

This can all be quite fiddly, (hence the 0.98\textwidth), but you get
the idea?

PS There's also a latex-beamer-users at lists.sourceforge.net forum which
you might find helpful.
