BlogWorld 2011 Recap
November 9, 2011 — permalinkAs we mentioned last week, some members of the Blogger team from Google HQ in Mountain View, Tokyo, Dublin, and Sydney (see group photo below) headed to Los Angeles to attend the 2011 BlogWorld & New Media Expo.
One of the primary reasons we attended the expo was to meet Blogger users 1:1, and to gain a better understanding of what we can do to improve the product to better meet your needs.
In addition to these discussions, we conducted surveys with many conference attendees to collect more in-depth feedback. Thank you! We really appreciate the valuable and candid responses.
In the survey results and our 1:1 discussions with you we heard a few common themes:
- You’re hoping to widen your audience with Google+
- You’d like more opportunities to customize and use gadgets with Dynamic Views
- You’re looking for tips and best practices for how to make more money from your blog with AdSense

November 9, 2011 — permalinkEarlier this week, the Google+ team launched Pages, a new way for you to keep up-to-date with your interests and build relationships with the people who share them. Today, the Blogger team is launching our own Google+ Page, and we’d like to invite you to add us to one of your circles.
By adding Blogger's Page in one of your circles, you'll start seeing updates from the Blogger team in your Google+ stream. You’ll also have the opportunity to engage with other bloggers by writing comments on the posts.
Here's a quick list of what to expect:
- Product news and announcements
- Video Hangouts with the Blogger team
- Spotlights on Blogger users and their blogs
- Pro tips from the Blogger team and other users
Lastly, be sure to mention +Blogger when you share your own tips -- if we come across something particularly helpful, we may reshare it.
See you on Google+!
