I guess you Blogger folks know this, but in case you don't:
Good news, folks! The feature wagon just arrived and dropped off a host of bloggity goodness at rock-bottom prices. And we're passing the savings on to you! That is, we're rolling in a bunch of features that will give you more powerful and flexible publishing power (for free).
These features include:
Spellchecking: Fewer typos. Look smarter.
Post-Dating: Adjust the date and time for a post, so it can show up under yesterday's heading, or save it for a later date (so you remember to post about your friend's birthday).
Drafts: Not done with that thought? Mark it a draft and complete it later. Or keep things in draft form for your own reference.
Daily Archiving: In addition to monthly and weekly options.
Post Titles: An optional field to add a title, or subject line, to each post. Handy if you format things that way in your template.
Post Template: If you routinely use the same formatting or HTML in your posts, load it in automatically.
BlogSend: Post to your blog, and it is sent via email.
Image/File Upload: Easily upload and link to photos and other files when making a post. Not available for non-Plus .blogspot.com sites!
We also released a couple other features recently, which you may have missed:
Better Internationalization: Time zones and date formatting is now supported for locales around the world. We also have better encoding for many different character sets.
Secure Publishing: If you're publishing to an outside host (instead of blogspot.com), you can now use SFTP instead of FTP. (It's more secure — ask your web host if they support it.)
For more information on how to use these features, check the (also new) Blogger Knowledge Base.
Though I need to tell you, they should have made sure the editor was correct before posting that notice.
They got stuff for ya if you're a Blogger Pro person too. A sweatshirt or partial refund, because the only things that distinguish a Pro account from a free account is stuff you may well not be using. It's good that they remembered, I give 'em props for that.
Now if their archives would only work…
