Blogger launches sneak peak service
Yesterday Blogger launched a new service called Blogger in Draft. It's essentially the same old Blogger interface with a few new features the team is in the midst of developing. Think of it like an open beta test. The first new feature is a built-in video uploader tool. Users can add AVI, MPEG, Quicktime, Windows Media, and Real video files up to 100MB. The service will then convert it into a playable Web video with an interface identical to Google's own video player, complete with Blogger branding.
What's interesting about this new feature is that Google is not-so-secretly uploading Blogger videos to Google video, where they can be searched and sorted. Blogger is just skipping a step in the user process and doing the upload without having to venture off-site.
Google intends to roll out more features to Google in Draft users in the coming months. Below is a screenshot of the new uploading interface.
Blogger in Draft's new video uploader tool lets you upload videos, not just embed them on the page.
