Blogger Beta Limited Launch

[engine]

With this new beta you can:

Categorize your posts with labels
Control who can read your blog
Change the appearance and content of your blog with your mouse instead of HTML

There's a tour here [blogger.com...]

This beta is limited so look out for a link on your blogger dashboard.

I'm having issues registering with BETA. I also can't log into my current Blogger account to post. Google used to be better about testing their products before releasing it, but they've gone the way of Microsoft and have started to release buggy services. I was disappointed with Google Checkout and now this.

I haven't had any problems with it...

The thing I like about blogger rather than the other free blog sites is that I have nearly complete control over the code. Way to go Google!

Haven't experienced any bugs yet...

How come when I log into my blogger dashboard, everything is the same? Is this a limited beta blogger to only certain publishers?

[vincevincevince]

Is this by invitation only? Is it only for blogger.com hosted blogs or for externally hosted blogs as well?

Codswallop. Take a look back to when Google Search was first publically available...

Why don't you look back for me and explain what you mean.

well, I've been testing it and it looks ok, think it was made fool's proof.

However, it doesn't allow you to edit html yet and It has problems when adding the adsense code.

They shouldn't have released it yet, there are a lot of things that need to be improved.

It does allow you edit the code under the template tab. I created a blog on there to mimic on of the sites I maintain <snip>. On another of these test blogs I created I added adsense without problems. <snip>
