Static Pages in Blogger Blogs... Finally!

It's an oh-so-basic blog feature that's been missing from Blogger since the beginning of time.  Finally, they caught up with the rest of the world and announced they now support static pages.  Until now, poor Blogger users had to hack their templates half to death to build static pages and even then, they would still pop up in your blog's feed and other odd places. This was the one reason I steered folks to WordPress instead -- even with WP's lousy, pay-to-customize-anything policy.  I can now safely recommend the Blogger platform without reservations!

(Note this does not take into consideration hosting your own WordPress installation.  Most people who ask me for advice about building a blog don't have the expertise or desire to deal with hosting their own platform.  If they did, I'd point them to Drupal!)

Since this is still beta code, you need to point your browser at draft.blogger.com.  From there you can access all your usual blogs just as if you came in through Blogger usual front door.
