New Feature on Blogger

Wow...When I was going to update my blog, I received a notification from blogger team stated they have implemented a new feature to blogger. This cool feature is called "Dynamic View(s)". Blogger currently offers five dynamic views for its public blogs. These views are only accessible if allowed for by the blog author. They are:
  1. Flipcard
  2. Mosaic
  3. Sidebar
  4. Snapshot
  5. Timeslide
As an example, the URL for accessing the 'Timeslide' (*which I like the most) view for dream.in.hand would be http://dreamin-hand.blogspot.com/view/timeslide.

Anyway, these views require modern browsers such as Internet Explorer 8+, Firefox 3.5+, Chrome or Safari. Many elements of these views will not work should you have an older browser.

For you, bloggers, who want your blog to be viewed in several new and exciting ways, please make sure all of the following are true:
  1. Your blog is public. Your readers don’t need to sign in to view your blog.
  2. Your blog has feeds fully enabled. In the Settings | Site feed tab, you have enabled either Full or Jump Break for your Post Feed.
  3. You have not disabled dynamic views. In the Setting | Formatting tab, the option for Enable Dynamic Views is set to Yes.
If any of the above conditions are not true, users who attempt to access dynamic views for your blog will instead be taken to a landing page and redirected to your original blog in a few seconds.

If all of the above conditions are true, your readers can access the dynamic views for your blog by simply appending /view to the URL.

Please note that these views do not currently support many of the features your original blog may have, including displaying advertisements. For this reason we have provided the option for you to disable dynamic views in your Settings page. We intend to add these missing capabilities over the coming months as well as let you personalize these views, including providing an option to set a particular view as the default.

Please take a look at the article on Dynamic Views for Readers or Dynamic Views for Authors to get more details.

Enjoy the new views... :3 miaaaawww....
