We're Back with a New Look!

PANADURA, Sri Lanka -- After a whole weekend of fiddling with the layout mechanism of the Blogger in Beta, we're back with a new look. New posts and changes to posts are now saved to the database and dynamically served on demand. The dreaded publishing indicator is no more. Yay!

We had to remove the list of team members because that wasn't being generated correctly with a link to everyone's profiles. We'll put that back once it's fixed. In other noticeable changes, the blog archive has a new format and we've got a cleaner overall feel. The Beta supports labels (tags) for each post (like in Gmail and Picasa). You can see them at the bottom of this post. A label list will be added to the sidebar later.

One other important change: a Google account is needed to use the Beta. According to Blogger, you'll be invited to switch the next time you login with your existing Blogger account. Holler if you need help.

Well, that's it for the moment. Do send feedback about the new interface. Happy blogging!
