Blogger News - Google Gives Blogger a Makeover

Blogger News - Google Gives Blogger a Makeover 
Google has revealed that its blogging platform, Blogger.com, has been the latest Google product to receive a facelift.

Following in the footsteps of Google Docs, Gmail, Google+ and even Analytics a few months ago, Blogger is now a minimalist, white-spacey, colour flecked platform.

As Google hasn’t made any big changes to Blogger in the last few years, it has decided to completely rewrite the entire editing and management experience, Chang Kim, Product Manager, writes on the Google Blogger Buzz Blog.

Google has been testing out new features and designs for the site with a trial group behind the scenes. The feedback from the group of dedicated Blogger’s lead to a fair few improvements to the platform; including:

·        Create and edit posts for every page with an improved navigation bar

·        A new graph of your traffic numbers in the ‘Overview’ section so users can take a quick glance at how their blog is being received

·        A new list of helpful links, a feed of Blogger updates and a showcase of other blogs users may find interesting

·        An expanded and simplified post editor (below)
