We can write a post now and have it automatically published at some time in the future. The Scheduling of posts from today's date is now available in Blogger.com.We can try this feature on Blogger in draft.

The Scheduling of Posts is available under the blogger widget name "Schedule Posts". The Steps to be followed for publishing a post in the future is pretty simple

-- First Login your blogger account in http://draft.blogger.com instead of http://blogger.com.

-- In the post editor, write your post content and before posting see the "Post Options" available at bottom of Post Editor.

-- In the Post Options, there are 2 options, first being Automatic Date and Time and second being Scheduled Date and Time.

-- In the Scheduled Date and Time enter a post date and time that is in the future. When you then click the “Publish” button, your post will become “scheduled.” When the date and time of the post arrive, your post will be automatically published to your blog.

-- To cancel a scheduled post, Go to Edit Posts, select the scheduled post in "Edit Mode" and save it as Draft. Thus the scheduled becomes a normal post and post is being published immediately.

The Scheduled posts feature works well when You have logged your Blogger account in http://draft.blogger.com

Advantages of Scheduled Posts in Blogger :

* Some bloggers currently use future post dates in order to keep one post at the top of their blog for a while. First they can publish the post with the current date and time. This will publish it to their blog. Then, once it’s published, edit the post to change the date to the future and publish it again.

* Published posts can be re-scheduled so the post will stay on your blog but sort to the very top.

Gmail:Typing In Indian Languages

Usually we used to type mail in English only. We will be using the mail services for all our friends,family and other proposes. However, there was one limitation that family members and friends who prefer to communicate in their mother tongue (language) did not have an easy way to type and send email in their language of choice. Now Gmail has announced a new feature that makes us easy to type email in Indian languages.

When you compose a new mail in Gmail, you should now see an icon with an Indian character(Hindi), as the image displayed below. This feature is enabled by default for Gmail users in India. If you do not see this function enabled by default, you will need to go the "Settings" Tab and then enable this option in the "Language" section.

When you click the Indian languages icon, you can type words the way they sound in English and Gmail will automatically convert the word to its Indian local language equivalent. For example, if a Hindi speaker types "namaste" then gmail will transliterate to Hindi automatically after you give a space. Gmail currently support five Indian languages --

Hindi,

Tamil,

Telugu,

Kannada and

Malayalam..

You can select the language of your choice from the drop-down list next to the icon.

This feature was built using Google's transliteration technology, which is also available on Google India Labs, Orkut, Blogger and iGoogle. I hope you users find this feature useful to communicate with those of your friends and family who prefer to write in their native language, and in the near future it will be made available soon to businesses and schools using Google Apps.

Now start replying emails to all in native languages..
