Google
has upgraded its
Blogger
web publishing tool to include new features. The revamped version is currently
in beta and its release is being limited to selected members.
Chosen users with existing blogs on the system will see a link in their
Blogger dashboard inviting them to move to the new system.
Users can also access the enhanced features by
registering
for an account directly for the beta version.
The relaunched Blogger includes the ability to categorise posts with labels,
control who can view a blog and change the appearance of a blog without having
to delve into the underlying HTML.
Blogger accounts are now integrated with
Google
Accounts, which can be applied for separately or are associated with
Gmail
addresses.
"You've been asking for ways to do more with your blog, and you can with this
new release," said Jason Goldman, a product manager at Google, announcing the
beta on the
Blogger
Buzz blog.
Google has created an
interactive
tour detailing the new features.
