Blogger Finally Has Post Scheduling!!!!!

This is some great news for all of you Blogger users out there. Google has finally gotten the message and upgraded the Blogger platform to include post scheduling. Nothing has really changed in the posting interface except that now when you select post options if you enter a future date and time the post is not published immediately (like it illogically was before), but it is instead scheduled to post on the date and time specified. Here are a few pics to show you how to do it and what it looks like.

First pic just shows that I entered a future date and time for this post.


This second pic shows the posts list after I hit publish for the article.


As you can see the post is now shown in the list and is labeled as scheduled. Note also that you can now filter the posts by the scheduled status as well as the usual published and draft.

This is a huge added feature to the blogger package and one that so many users have been waiting for. Now if we could just get a real archive page that would be nice. Oh yeah and fix the dang comment system too. Well I guess we can't get too greedy now huh???

later all and have a profitable and productive blogging day

What the F Does the C Stand 4

Hopefully you won't think this Contest is full of Sh-t . For many many years I have had the "nickname," I guess you could call it, of Cman. Here lately, probably due in part to #10 in my 10 Reasons John Chow Probably Thinks This Blog Is About Him article, I have been getting asked more and more what the C in Cman stands for. Herein lays the focus of this contest. For the person who can guess what the C in Cman stands for I will give them $100. If multiple people guess correctly the winner will be chosen by random drawing from among the correct entries. If no one guesses correctly I will randomly pick from all entries and will award the winner of the losers $20. Clarification: 1. In the words of Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, "There can be only One." Winner that is. E...

Are We Too Connected?

I have asked myself, and others, this question many times. It all started with the answering machine. Then we had emails, mobile phones, and now mobile phones with emails. We now have Twitter, & ppl posting constantly about their lives. It isn't that I don't see how it could benefit this blog, but simply put, quite a bit of the time I don't give a da-- that you are sitting in Starbucks reading a book. Unless of course there is some benefit to me from that information, such as you are a friend I'm meeting for coffee. Also, I really don't figure you give a da-- that I am sitting somewhere either. I understand Twitter goes beyond that, but you get the point. I use twitter, and yes I've posted that I was sitting in a Starbucks. So we have people running around with their iPhones and Crackberries worried they are missing emails, phone calls, and text messages. They are doing this while listening to music and Twittering away. With all of the social networking a...
