The New Look Blogger by Google

[gammo]

The new Beta version of Blogger is sure to create waves with all the new features that have been added. The new Dashboard sure looks pretty. I am yet to test out all of the features. In the meantime, however, I have transferred my blog to the new Beta Blogger. Hope it's all that it is cut out to be.

Is blogger better than wordpress?

Was the transition an easy one?

What are the improvements?

I would be interested to know as well. Do people make good looking plugins and such for it as well? How are the templates?

Sounds good. I'm looking forward to that one.

How are the templates?

A picture says more then a thousand words Judge for yourself, on this site you can find about 80 Blogger templates.
Another site that provides free templates.

Another one and this one also holds a couple of nice ones.

I have moved to Beta and the transition was very easy. I haven't tested out all the new features but the main improvement I like is the ability to tag posts - finally Blogger has implemented this.

This maybe a stupid question, but can you add your own adsense ads to blogger?

:hehe:

I have started using labels for my posts. I too am happy that Blogger has included labels as it will make it easier for specific blogs to be found.

Interesting. I am just a newbie on this board but I must admit, I'm already learning so many things here.

Keep in mind that the larger your blog becomes is the longer it takes to publish. Sometimes you may even get a message asking if you want to wait for it to finish publishing. If you choose not to wait and sign-out, it will still continue publishing until it reaches 100%. That is another feature I like with Blogger Beta.
