Google Preparing Major Upgrade To Blogger


Google is inviting people to use a new version of Blogger, one that makes some good behind-the-scenes fixes. The New Blogger uses Google Accounts, and will eventually let you migrate your current Blogger accounts over. Rather than generate HTML pages for everything, like Blogger now does, Blogger will run off a database, with a dynamic serving sys. [digg]


Update: My test blogger account is here.

YouTube? [Updated]

Should I remove all my videos that I have on YouTube.com? I have moved most of them to Veoh.com beause the quality is better and they don't have a size limit. I have also noticed that my videos are getting more views over there. They don't however have a private video feature. I emailed them and they said that this is something they are looking into. They have serveral other features that are very cool. You can upload videos by a URL or RSS. You also have the choice to download the videos in the iPod or psp formats. I just don't like where YouTube is going. I really would like some feedback on this one.

Star Trek XI in 2008



Looks like there is going to be a new Star Trek movie in 2008. And J.J. Abrams is one of the producers. J.J. also has the option to direct. From the poster it looks like it is going to be set in Captain Kirk's time period. I really do hope that they make a good film.

New features in Google Talk

Google has some new features in Google Talk. The new features are being released to a limited number of testers. The new features are file transfer, voicemail, and music status. You can send unlimited files and folders to your friends. There is no restriction on the file type or size. You can now leave voicemail to your friends who are on Google Talk or not. They will receive a email with the message attached as an audio file. You can also download the mp3. Very cool. You can also let your friends see what you're listening to.

This is what the player in the email looks like.

Digg v3.0 Launches


Today digg launched there third version of the popular website. They have added other topics that include Science, World & Business, Videos, Entertainment, and Gaming. The site looks great. The other topics are showing up in the main rss feed now. I really don't care for that. But you can subscribe to whatever topic rss feed that you would like. The site is alittle slow but that is understandable. The my profile page has been totally re-worked and it is now easier to find what your friends are digging. When you mark a digg that is spam or lame the digg is now grayed out. And the box says buried. Which makes it alot easier to find the stories that you did not digg. Also check out the about us page. You can finally see who makes digg possible. Well, that was my short and sweet review.
