Artisteer Now For Blogger

artisteerArtisteer is a product from Exensoft. A company that codes by the 3M tagline – “We didn’t bring you Blogger, we made it prettier.”

Artisteer has been on the market for some time to help non-design and non-technical folks navigate the world of web design for pre-built software packages like WordPress, Joomla and Drupal. They recently added Blogger to this mix and I am sure to the delight of the PM’s of Blogger at Google.

Blogger is a huge ecosystem of global bloggers but has for many years been passed up on features by smaller more nimble competitors like WordPress. I would say MovableType but they too have languished a bit to catch up to the robust features that open systems like Drupal and WordPress have gained from code submitted by users.

This is a great direction for Blogger to go. The more tools that it can offer users the better chance it has at increasing its non-spam user base. I kid you Blogger. There is real opportunity for them to lower attrition rates as their current users now have an option to begin creating customized layouts with ease.

Artisteer is designed as a WYSIWYG editor for people that want to create these customized layouts and apply them to their Blogger blog (that just sounds weird). The application lowers the barrier both technical and financial over other programs aimed at professional users that create designs for multiple types of media. Artisteer is focused on allowing users to design, chop, export and upload their designs and have them working immediately.

I wonder what else the Blogger team has up its sleeves?
