   Provide a higher level of access restriction to your private blog, only those reader that have their email address added by into you private list are able to view your blog.
   



3. Labels
   
   My most wanted feature!! Labels or catergory. Wanted this features for quite awhile but lazy to do the research on how to do it. For each post, you could specific a catergory/labels in order to group posts of relevant topic together and make it easier for reader to search.
   
   
   
   
   
   



4. More Site Feed Options
   
   Actually there's alot of other blogs with this feature built long ago, feeds for all comments and individual feeds on comments of each posts. To aid reader in tracking updates on comments of certain posts. Added support for the RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 standards.




5. Instant publishing
   
   Byebye to the long waiting "publishing...20%" No more "republish" or "republish index". Now when updates are make, be it create post/edit post/blog settings the changes is reflected immediately.
   
   Technical details,
   Dynamic Serving
   
   With the old engine, Blogger would create static HTML files on your Blog*Spot account every time you published, and those files would remain there unchanged until your next update.
   
   In the new version, adding a new post simply updates your information in blogger database. Then, when someone wants to see any of the pages on your blog, those pages are created for them dynamically, on the fly.
