Blogger Newsletter

Blogger Newsletter
December, 2010

Hello Blogger user!

We know it’s been a little while since you’ve heard directly from us, so here we are again to spread the latest product news and updates from the Blogger Team.

Things have been very busy over here recently, as we’ve been working really hard to develop a number of new features while also building out new teams in global offices. Over the last few months we’ve put a lot of energy towards turning your suggestions into improvements to Blogger, and just in case you missed something along the way, we’ve compiled a list of our favorite updates for you to check out.

And while you’re busy reading through this list, we’ll be putting the final touches on the next round of exciting stuff. Make sure to stay tuned for 2011; we have big plans in store.

Features

Comment Filtering

Hopefully you’ve noticed the new Comments tab in your dashboard, which we added over the summer as part of our upgrade to the comment system. This Comment Inbox is a centralized place where you can manage all of your comment-related tasks, like delete published comments, manage comments that have been flagged as spam, and moderate awaiting comments (if you’ve enabled Comment Moderation).

We’ve also started analyzing all posted comments in our system, and are automatically classifying the ones we believe to be spam. Similar to Gmail’s spam filtering, you can help us improve our classifiers by telling us whether the comments we’ve caught are actually spam.



Stats

The Stats tab is another recent addition to the dashboard, and is the hub for all your blog’s realtime traffic data. Pageviews, reader location, browser types, popular posts, and referral sources are just a few of the pieces of information we’re constantly collecting for each blog.

If you want to show off your blog’s traffic data to your readers, we’ve also built Blog Stats and Popular Posts gadgets which you can add to your template. These can be added from the Gadget Directory at any time, and have a variety of configurable options to change the display and data layout.



Background Image Upload

Earlier in the summer we released our Template Designer to all users, and asked for your feedback about what other features we could add to make it even better. By far the top request was the ability to upload your own background image, and we’re happy to say that this feature is now live within the Template Designer.

To upload your own background image to your blog, simply click on the Background section within the Template Designer.



Mobile BlogSpot

We realize that more and more users are accessing the web on smartphones, and we want to make sure that blogs still look nice when viewed on these smaller screens. We’ve put a lot of work into creating a mobile version of BlogSpot, which will automatically detect if a blog is accessed on a smartphone and then display a mobile-optimized version.

Mobile BlogSpot is live now on Blogger in Draft, and can be enabled from the Settings | Email & Mobile tab. From there you can also check out a mobile preview version of your blog to see what it will look like.



Web Fonts

The Google Web Fonts team has made great progress on expanding font options across the web, especially for non-Latin alphabets like Cyrillic and Greek. We’ve taken advantage of their work and now offer 40 new Web Fonts in the Template Designer on Blogger in Draft. For the full list, check out our Help Center article.

Yoga mats come in three basic thicknesses with a newer fourth thickness becoming increasingly available. At 1/4 inch, this mat is one of the latter kind that tops even the "thick" mats (3/16" thick) designed for those who need or want extra cushion. At 24" x 68" it is the standard width and length. Mats that are about one fourth as thick as this one (1/16") are good for travel or placing under a thicker mat to provide more traction. The average mats are about 1/8."

Blogger Newsletter - July 2010

Blogger Newsletter July, 2010

Hello Blogger user!

It’s been a busy and exciting last few months for all of us here on the Blogger Team. We’ve been working hard from around the globe to put the finishing touches on a handful of recently-released features, as well as looking to the future with big ideas which will make Blogger even better. So as we say goodbye to the first half of 2010, we wanted to say a big thanks to all of you who have made working on Blogger so fun and rewarding—we really do appreciate it!

We thought it’d be helpful to summarize some of the latest Blogger news and developments that our team is especially proud of. From new features to worldwide Blogger meetups, there is much to be excited about. So without further ado, here is the 411:

Features, Fresh Out of the Oven



Template Designer

If you haven’t had a chance to check out our brand-new Template Designer, you’re really missing out. We laid out the full laundry list of new design features in a recent Buzz post, but we think the best way to find out what’s possible is to get your hands dirty and play around right now.

So go ahead and freshen up your template; your blog will thank you.



Blogger Stats

We’re very excited about the most recent creation from Blogger in Draft, Blogger Stats. Blogger stats makes it easier than ever to get all sorts of real-time traffic data for your blog, right from the comfort of your Blogger dashboard.







Accurate Post Preview

We understand how important it is for your blog posts to display exactly as you expect when published, so we’ve put a lot of time into improving our current preview page. The end result is an entirely revamped post preview, which now displays your drafts exactly as they will appear when published live on your blog.



New Sharing Buttons

We’re always thinking about ways to help you better promote and share your blog content with the world, and the new sharing buttons we’ve just released are great tools to help you get the word out. The buttons—which support sharing via email, Blogger, Google Buzz, Twitter, and Facebook—can be placed under each blog post where your readers will easily see them.

You can turn on the new sharing buttons right now by editing the Blog Posts widget and enabling Show Share Buttons in the Design | Page Elements tab.







Zemanta Post Gadget

Zemanta has been a partner with Blogger for over a year now, providing a browser plugin service that helps you easily add related content to your blog posts. We’ve seen so much positive feedback about the service that we recently released a gadget version of the service that easily integrates directly in your post editor.

Want more info? Check out Zemanta’s own video overview and tutorials!



Google Affiliate Network

With Google Affiliate Network you can access affiliate ads for top retailers. If the ad or text link you post on your blog results in a sale, you earn a commission.

Google Affiliate Network is featured in the Monetization tab in your Blogger account. You’ll need an AdSense ID to join, and once you have access to Google Affiliate Network you can apply to advertiser programs, promote ads, search for links to specific products, sign up to access product feeds, and utilize Link Subscriptions that deliver the latest links and promotions directly to you each day.





More Fun Stuff

Worldwide Meetup

The Blogger Team has long wanted to help organize a worldwide meetup for Blogger enthusiasts all over the world, and we’re happy to announce that we’re in the final planning stages of actually making this happen! We’ll be sure to share the details on Blogger Buzz as soon as we sort everything out, but are looking now at dates in late August/early September.



Blogger on Facebook & Twitter

Yes, Blogger has its own brand-new fan page on Facebook. Drop in to say hello to the Blogger Team, network with other like-minded bloggers, and share cool blogs.

Our Twitter page is another great resource for the latest Blogger info, announcements, launches, and service updates.



As always, we’ve been listening closely to your feedback and will continue to do so with anything that we’re working on. If you have specific feedback about features we’ve released, you can always let us know via our Help Forum. Our ears are always open, and often it is your voice that ultimately drives our development process. So if you have something to pass along, please speak up.

Thanks again for using Blogger!

Quantcast Newsletter: New Tutorial Series & MTV Sells Audiences With Quantcast


February 2010

Fast Company Ranks Quantcast Third Most Innovative Company on the Web & one of Top 50 Most Innovative Companies in the World

The annual Most Innovative Companies ranking honored global pioneers such as Apple, Google, Facebook, Cisco and Disney along with rising stars. And we are excited to have been included on the list!

While recognition is certainly always appreciated, today, what we are most proud of is our staff. We consider ourselves lucky to have some of the industry's most talented individuals, but we are all about team. It's this team, 70 strong and growing, who have transformed the audience measurement landscape from static, historical, aggregate reporting to a live, impression level model that connects the planning, buying, and media fulfillment processes and delivers the most consistent and accountable audiences for the world's media marketplace.

For more on the article, visit Fast Company here.




Quantcast Tutorial Series Launches

Growing numbers of media companies and advertisers are adopting Quantcast services, and we want to make sure you have easy access to tutorials and best-practices. Quantcast has launched a webinar tutorial series to help you do just that.

Each tutorial webinar will be, roughly, a 30-minute session that combines training and a question and answer period with one of our product specialists. If you aren't able to make it at the scheduled time, all tutorials will be archived on our site's Tutorials page for viewership at your convenience.

For updates on what's up next in our series, check back at the Tutorials page soon!

 



MTV Network Partners with Quantcast to Sell Audiences

MTV Networks is the most recent media company to join the Quantcast Audience service. Advertisers now have industry-leading capabilities to better reach their target audiences on sites in MTVN's online portfolio, including MTV.com, VH1.com, ComedyCentral.com and Spike.com, as well as on partner sites in the company's Tribes vertical ad network.

In addition to online display inventory, MTVN is among the first premium publishers to offer Quantcast Audience targeting across premium video content online.

"This new capability now provides our advertisers with efficient targeting, adjacency to quality content, and extensive reach. There are very few media companies capable of solving for all three of these primary needs of advertisers," said Kevin Arrix, EVP of Digital Advertising Sales for MTVN. "Ultimately, we're giving our advertisers the ability to laser-focus their marketing messages while connecting our audiences with the brands and products that are most relevant to them."

If you are an agency or advertiser and want to buy audiences, just ask your MTVN sales executive or contact Quantcast about how you can do it today across MTVN's premium content offerings.
