Google Blogger Leaves Beta

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the more-emo-please dept.

VE3OGG writes "It would seem that Google's famed, award-winning blogging software, Blogger, has just left beta, ABC reports, and entered a growing (but still short) list of Google products to move out of beta. Of course, with this change is status also came a few crucial new features for Google's blogging agent, specifically Google account integration, "Web 2.0" code free updates, and tagging."

    Yeah it's terribly sad. Google should build their products like Microsoft and say they are production ready regardless of how well they have been tested. And it's also terribly sad that Google has so many products in beta yet still manages to make >$7 billion in revenue. You must be thinking that Google has a foolish business model. Keep on thinking that about the 1 decade old company.

    The genius of Google's strategy of keeping applications "in beta" forever is that they get two press events for each product launch.

    What I don't get is, why do you people keep falling for it?

      It's all part of "web 2.0", hell, i bet they'd get a press release if they added a couple gradients to a few block elements on their page..
