Blogger Beta

In having my students create their first blogs today using Blogger, one of them managed to create an account in the new “Beta” version of Blogger. It look different and works a bit differently too. (I did notice that “password protected” blogs is one of the new features.) You can use it but not with an existing account. To play with it you’ll need to sign up for a new Google Account.

The down side to all this is that my Blogs & RSS book is slated to come out in October. Knowing my luck, this beta version will become the liver version just about the same time thus making all my screenshots and instructions out of date and inaccurate.

  1. Hey Michael – I was in your classes on Wednesday of the Nevada Technology Conference. My friend and I presented a program on Blogging last Tuesday at the NLA Conference, and we used Blogger for many of our screenshots and planning.

    Our presentation became quite extermporaneous becuase of the beta release, too. The Beta has new features that we love, but still…

    It’s not an entire book, but we feel your pain, at least a little of it.

    And technology marches on…
