Improvements to Blogger In Draft's Text Editor

by Jiho Han, Software Engineer

We've made a couple of improvements to the Text Editor on Blogger in Draft

Add captions to your photos 

Now you can easily add captions to the images you include in your blog posts! To add a caption, simply click on the image you've inserted, and click Add caption.











Then you can write your caption just below the image. 









Expandable Edit Region

In addition to captions, we've recently added another new feature for you verbose bloggers out there. You can now expand the text area of the editor to give yourself more room as you type. To make the editor region larger, simply click the corner of the editor and drag it down.
The editor window will also grow automatically as you run out of space.

Faster Video Uploading

Your time is very important to us, and we are continuously working to make your experience on Blogger fast and easy. We know that it's no fun waiting for your videos to upload, so we've recently made speed improvements to make your videos upload faster.

Let us know what you think of these features in the comments below, and thanks for using Blogger!

Better Image Posting on "Blogger In Draft"

We've added a couple of image upload improvements and UI changes to the editor on Blogger In Draft.

You'll notice that the Insert Image and Insert Video buttons look a bit different in the new editor's toolbar.


In addition, the Insert Image dialog now lets you choose the destination album for your image in Picasa Web Albums.



Better yet, you can easily choose from photos you've already uploaded to Picasa.



Finally, the video upload interface is updated as well.

As you try out these features, let us know how it goes in the comments.

Thanks!

Polls and enclosures added to Blogger in draft

Today we’re saving two more features to Blogger in draft: Polls and enclosure links.

The polls page element lets you add a poll to your blog’s sidebar. You choose the question and the answers, and let your readers vote. Learn more about polls.

Enclosure links let you turn your blog into a podcast. If you’ve uploaded your audio or video to the web, you can link to it as an enclosure so that your readers can subscribe and download it using iTunes or another podcatcher. We’ve also gone ahead and added enclosure information for all videos uploaded directly in Blogger, making video podcasting crazy easy! Learn more about enclosure links.

Still in draft is video uploading. We’ve got one or two more things for it before we’re ready to publish it…
