The new blogger version(no. 2) lost the “beta”.

New features (pluses) of blogger version 2.

1. Easy customize your templates by using a drag and drop function
2. You can create a private blog to share your thoughts with just family and friends
3. More feed options you can have a feed for all the comments on your blog, and even individual feeds for all the comments on each separate post. Support for the RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 standards.
4. Updated Dashboard – even more easy to use

Let’s analyze the new blogger features:
- The easy templates customization is welcome, because blogger competitors like WordPress were using a large number of customizable templates.
- The private blog was necessary for people who want to keep their blog away from public eyes.
- New feed are for advanced users – the most part of blogger users will not even notice this change
- The dashboard was easy to use in the version no.1. I didn’t saw a big difference in version 2, but it looks better.

Enough with the good part. Let’s see the minus of blogger ver.2.
I talked about the pluses of the new version, but Blogger was a big problem: It Is Very Slow.
Version 1 was at leas twice faster that no. 2.

So don’t aspect to move very fast with new blogger.

To get started with the new version of blogger go to blogger.com and choose from the right corner “New Blogger”.

Of course if you don’t like the new version for your blog you can switch back to the older version.

To promote you new blogs don’t forget there is a easy way to get the blog in search engines. Details on www.happyblogging.info/2007/02/02/fast-way-to-get-your-blog-in-search-engines.
