The Great Blogger Relaunch

Actually, that is Blogger's title. I'm too lazy to come up with anything else to call this post. My feelings about nuBlogger have been summed up pretty well at this blog

The new look of the site and the new templates are just what the doctor ordered. Also, making permalinks, now called Page Posts, appears fairly easy. But I must say that making people have to mess with typing code just to put links in the gutter (sidebar) is not very user friendly. It is one of the main reasons my primary blog is elsewhere. In a related diss, losing any changes to the sidebar whenever you change the template hardly makes sense if the whole aim of the new, improved site is to get casual bloggers--such as myself-- to use Blogger as their host. Maybe it is impossible to change templates without losing additions to the sidebar, I'm not tech savvy at all, so that could be the case. But I somehow doubt it.

How can I really complain? Blogger has been nice enough (or perhaps inattentive enough) to allow me to diss them without kicking me off the site. Maybe they know that no one reads Pila Posts. I'd like to think that they are just so fair-minded and obsessed with free speech that they refuse to dump complainers.
