The new Blogger.com is out, and it looks great, both visually and functionally. It’ll take a while to get used to not seeing the old black layout, but on the plus side, the new dashboard is clean and simple, and the public profiling brings the community/social network aspect of the system into sharp focus. The new features look extremely promising: so much so, in fact, that I think I will use Blogger.com for my moblog, a step I had not seriously considered since the BloggerBot stopped working. Setting up an email-to-post-based weblog on Blogger will certainly be easier than on Movabletype.

(I’ll update details, feedback, and insider info I see as I go along, but it’s almost 2am, and after all the hiking and skating my feet hurt, so I’m going to bed.)
