Okay.
After reading this post, I was finally bothered enough to try out the New Blogger Interface.
As I clicked the button, I was suddenly overcome with... such whiteness.
I was seriously taken aback at all the whiteness, seriously.
Apparently, this looks "clean" and "stunning/beautiful", whatever word they used on the Google Explanation Page.
I was surprised by its appearance, seeing that Ruby Mae complimented it.
Then again, I have no artistic sense and my sense of aesthetics is either weird or abnormal.
It felt... so... empty.
And emptiness is not good for someone suffering from Depression... I wouldn't think. :/
Gives me a "voided" sort of feeling. ==
It's easy to navigate around, obviously, once you remember to go the right way and click the right buttons. ==
I also like this "Create a New Post" look that I am currently on at the moment, too. ..although I think it still contains too much white. There should be some contrasting colours!! ><
I like how I won't ever scroll too far down or too far up and misses the text box. :3 (You'll know what I mean if you've used both versions. ...I think.) Very conventional.
I don't really like the new Dashboard design, however.
It's really hard to make out the different lines/links and stuff. I prefer the old one for this part, however I guess it also allows me to never miss new blog updates once I log in. ==
I like the features in the "Information/Settings" page you get directed to once you click on your blog, too.
But still, it's too much white.
Don't misunderstand what I'm saying. I don't have anything against the colour white. I quite like it, actually. It's just that it's too much of the same colour. And that makes it a bit hard to... see where things are...
Ugh. I hate explaining things that are... hard to explain. :/
And I'd just realised - the white also gives of a glare... one of that is opposite to what you'd get from staring at a page with a black background and white writing for too long and too much. It doesn't hurt your eyes as much, but I can currently see a bright strip of whiteness in front of me. :/
I prefer convenience above appearance, after all.
Oh well. I'll leave it like this for a couple more days.
If it doesn't work, I change it.
No big deal. :/

The Great Difference Between Blogs and.. THAT THING called Facebook
Facebook. Apparently extremely popular and addictive.
I rarely post anything on facebook, since most of my "friends" don't know anime and I can't just go rant on about anime when more than half of them don't understand a single word I'm saying - it'll just waste the "wall" space. :/ And I barely have anything to say unless it's about anime and manga... but now there's a new topic I can talk about; "life, living, death, dying, suicide", and so on. xP
But blogs are still more... conventional... more... versatile.
I mean, I will definitely NOT and WILL NEVER talk about how much I hate life, hate living, want to die, and all that senseless and unreasonable crap of mine on Facebook.
NEVAAAA!
...unless I go crazy from the hatred and depression caused from such hatred. :P Although I think that's quite likely to happen. ...Wait a moment. I meant "unlikely". ><
But when it does happen... you can be sure that I wasn't in my right mind when I was doing such a stupid thing. ><
Since on Facebook, the people who read your posts are undoubtfully people you know (unless you accept random friend requests and sends random people friend requests). Worse, you may be "friends" with relatives, or your parents.
And you want to say "I want to die" to your parents?? (or relatives)??
...That's just not right. Plus, saying you want to die to the person who'd actually brought you life... it's just...
REALLY WRONG. Morally WRONG.
But the greatness of Blogs - the readers don't know you (most of them, anyway). Unlike Facebook, you don't have to only except "friends" - and if you don't tell your family or friends about your blog, they'll never know about it and will very likely never read it.
Or even if they find it, make your posts vague enough so that they won't realise it's you. >.> xD
And so you can say the most outrageous and negative things... even if no one reads it it's good to know that you've said it "out loud"... and that there's a chance of people seeing it. Humans are strange creatures. They usually want to tell people how unlucky they are. >.>
Sometimes it's because, 1. They want people to cheer them up.
Or, 2. They just want the opposite party to know how lucky they are. Or the opposite; they want others to know how unlucky the writer is.
Or maybe 3. Simply just to get it out.
Or maybe some other random reason. I've never studied psychology before, so I don't know :/ ... Hey, it's pretty interesting though. 8D ...I was just spitting out senseless crap earlier. Don't mind me. ==
Just saying'.
Since I'm a newly-addicted Blogger and a long-time indifferent-er of Facebook.

Worldwide Fame >.>
Please just ignore that senseless title.
After reading this post, I thought I might as well go check my status as well. :/ ...and 8 people has used the Kindle to view my blog! 8D
...It was probably mostly me, although I don't think I did it as many as 8 times... :/ Hnnm...
Australia: 201 people (all time) ...
Russia: 164 people (all time)
etc.
My first reaction was: Russia? O.o Why would people from Russia want to read my blog? HEck, why would anyone want to read my blog??
Not surprisingly, over 70% are Windows. ==
How many people in this world can even afford a Mac anyway? And how many people actually know about Linux/es? ...do they? O.o
Aaah... this post was another pointless one.

Something's Wrong With This...
LOL, 3 posts on 3 different subjects in one day in a roll.
For some reason, sometimes I follow one blog, sometimes I follow 5 (the correct amount), according to my "Reading List" at the bottom of my Dashboard.
And sometimes I have one follower, sometimes I have two.
And sometimes someone posted on a blog I'm following, and then the posts disappear on my "Reading List" and then reappear again...
Is it my computer, my internet, Google Chrome, or Blogger itself?
