New version of Blogger
The new version of Blogger moved from the beta to the release stage, and finally even large blogs like mine could move to the new version. For me the main advantage is that when I publish a post, it appears instantly on the blog, there is no more long "publishing post" waiting screen. But otherwise the new Blogger is very similar to the old one. And in fact for my readers nothing visible should have changed. If you notice any changes or problems, please leave a comment here.
I had to laugh about the announcement on the Blogger main site: The new version of Blogger in beta is dead!
Long live the new version of Blogger!
(P.S. The old version of Blogger is not dead, but it would like to retire for a little while... maybe go to Hawaii or play World of Warcraft all day? It begs you to let it play World of Warcraft all day.)
World of Warcraft as a retirement occupation, now there is a new idea.

There are a couple of annoying, visible changes.
First, if you're logged into your gmail account it automatically uses that information. So, my full name was published the last time I made a comment, instead of just Alex.
Also, when loading the comment section, I get security warnings on the Korean version of windows XP. I normally use OS X, though, so it's not a big deal.

Yeah, I get security warnings on the comment screen, since they've included both secure and non-secure elements. Plus, when I comment, it asks me to fill in the captcha twice every time. And, since I'm whining at blogger, it also forgets the values of the "name" and "your web page" fields, where before it cookied them.
RSS feeds have been improved. They're now featuring excerpt of the post itself, instead of mere URL.
