The latest from Blogger Buzz
Dynamic Views, the Chrome Extension
April 4, 2011 — permalink
Posted by Mike Lawther, Chrome Engineer
Last week we announced
five exciting new ways to view your blog content, which take advantage
of the latest web technologies to provide a richer experience for your
readers. You can already see these views in action by appending /view
to the end of any Blogger URL, but today we’re happy to announce
another way to experience these views via the Blogger Dynamic Views Chrome extension.
Once
installed, the extension will automatically detect when you are viewing
a Blogger blog, and then display a Blogger icon (the orange ‘B’!) in
your address bar which lets you select and view the blog in one of the
five new dynamic views. It’s that simple.
Of course, you can always disable the extension whenever you want from the Extensions section of the Tools menu. Try it out today, and please feel free to leave a rating or review on the extension page.
