Improvement: Now opens the preview page each time the preview button is clicked; previously it only did so the first time the button was clicked. Worth it?

Still More Filler
Seeing just how irksome the new & immutable interfaces in Blogger are, we noticed the stats & keywords for the last few hrs.
Bow wow wow.

I think in general we tend to overly react to UIs, particularly changes to them. Although there are objectively good and bad UIs and implementations, for the most part this is just a comfort with what we already know and a resistance to having to figure it out again.
I think ultimately the tradeoff to having all the application updates handled transparently on the server side rather than having to manage that process as the user is well worth it...
mikey, I understand what you're saying.
But I'm a coblogger at Thers, so I have learned their UI.
I feel like blooger has taken away everything good about their old UI in order to adopt a crappy implementation of Typepad's.

It is like the Typepad UI. FOR GIRLS, w/ all the pastels & whatnot.
mikey's correct though, it's mostly just irksome. Previously we could do half the work on autopilot w/ muscle memory, now we have to stop, look & think; eventually practice will make perfect. Get to work!
Although we are pissed we had to reset some of the options. Hardly a seamless transition.
I like the Preview opening on a whole other page. Better comparison.
