At the Speed of Google

Well I've pretty much given Google the keys to the kingdom. At last inventory, they've got all of my search queries, email and blog postings. Once they perfect a bookmark service a la Delicious they will be the gateway for every damn thing I do on the network. They keep producing services that I find extraordinarily useful, then add features to those services at exactly the rate that I need them.

Now, just today apparently, an important piece of the puzzle has fallen into place. I can finally host my Blogger postings at my own domain, which I had registered not long ago specifically for use with Google Apps. Integration with Blogger was the final bit I had been waiting for, and I didn't have to wait long!

I've been mucking around with the new Blogger interface and ended up replacing my template with something more flexible, if a little generic. The posts seem to have made it through the upgrade wringer without being altered, which is more than I can say for other early-adopters of the new Blogger. I think this bodes well for another year of self-referential literary wanking!
