Everything Old is New Again
Well, this is an interesting change to wake up to, if indeed I did wake up (I've a touch of insomnia along with the cold so I finally just gave up on uninterrupted sleep). Blogger has tinkered with its editing system again. Much for the better this time; you now compose in what resembles a word processing program (and can switch back and forth between that and "edit HTML" to see the code) that allows one-button capabilities to change font type and size, color, put in block quotes and images, create both bulleted and numbered lists, and align text. They've also coded in keyboard shortcuts and the ability to delete formatting if you don't like it. It's nice to have learned the HTML for most of this, but it's even nicer not to need to know it to do stuff like fonts and colors (I mean really, stuff like that has been more trouble than the coding's worth). And, as before, I'm still not paying a single cent to blog. Good going, Blogger, thanks! (Now if only I could figure out how to erase that extra line on the bottom... Update: I figured it out; it's because I'm justifying the text to align on both the left and right margins. If I leave it at left-margin alignment only it won't have that extra space.)
