To hell with Beta Blogger

Damn...I'm hating this.The first post after holidays being a complaint.

Let me say it again. To hell with Beta Blogger.

Editing the template took so 2hrs of time.I was trying to edit the template( this was the first time though), and it took me about an hour and a half to figure out that this bloody Beta Blogger needs all the code compliant to W3C standards and uses strict DHTML 1.0 coding."All the code has to be rewritten", I thought.But then I looked for some help online.On Google.The searches proved futile.One site after another. Still no solution.

Then, looked back into Blogger's other tabs and began experimenting.

A hour and a half well spent(?), there it was .It required that I type in the code as a HTML/Javascript snippet in the Template>Page Elements.

The previous Blogger supported the code( the same code) right on the template page itself.Then why doesn't Beta Blogger do?And more important is the fact that there is no mention of such differences between the previous version and this.

And ,providing something to cheer about is the fact that now the posting is really faster than the previous version.

Another day beginning 3 PM

Just another day starting at 3 PM.

Wake up at three, brush , have a bath,and run to CIC. But only to find it closed!!!
Go to the library , read some books.Again , each time I go to the library , I find something or the other interesting.If it weren't for the CIC , I would've spent my whole first year in the library....good for me....I think.

This, probably is the most boring mood I'm writing in.Nothing special...add a dumb movie prior to this writing session and ull know how it will feel.

The only reason I'm writing this is to try out the new Blogger Beta ...well it is not that good right now. I would not recommend anyone to shift to it as of yet.Unoptimized code, thats the main problem.And not a very well co-ordinated team , I must say.The Blogger Buzz and the Blogger Home Page contradict each other.Its slow .As I already said , the culprit is the unoptimized code.Doesnt look crisp and good either.The previous version was much better.However , I hope thse issues will be solved out soon.Time is of utmost importance, here.

The movie I mentioned earlier was "Killer" starring Emraan Hashmi , Irfan Khan, Zakeer Hussain, and Nisha Kothari .

Thats it for today.
