The New Blogger
Blogger finally gets an update and stops being neglected. Here are the new features of Blogger Beta, a new blogging platform:
Dynamic pages
"The biggest change of all is perhaps the least immediately visible, but it affects the entire underlying structure of Blog*Spot. What used to happen was that Blogger would create static HTML files on your Blog*Spot account every time you published, and those files would remain there unchanged until your next update. In the new version, adding a new post simply updates your information in our database. Then, when someone wants to see any of the pages on your blog, those pages are created for them dynamically, on the fly.
This makes the process of updating your blog much simpler and faster. You don't have to remember to republish anymore, or decide whether to do a republish index only or republish all. The instant you save a new post, template design, or settings change, your blog is updated. No more waiting for the publishing indicator to creep its way up to 100%."
Access control
You can make your blog private so you'll be the only one to read or you can let only certain people view it. Just enter their email addresses in the settings. This is useful if you create a blog for your friends or family.
Organize the posts with labels (categories), so it's easier to read related posts.
You don't have to deal with HTML and CSS when you edit your template. Using the new layouts feature, you can drag-and-drop to move parts of your page around, and choose new fonts and colors with just a few mouse clicks. When you change colors and fonts, you'll see a preview of the blog in real-time, so it's easier to decide what's the best choice.
More feeds
"In addition to the usual feed of your blog posts, you can have a feed for all the comments on your blog, and even individual feeds for all the comments on each separate post. Your visitors can use these feeds to find out if someone responds to their comments, or to follow discussions on your blog. The default format of the feeds will be upgraded from Atom 0.3 to Atom 1.0. Also, for you die-hard RSS fans out there, you'll be able to optionally get all feeds in RSS 2.0 format instead of Atom."
Cleaner dashboard
The dashboard looks better and it has more links to useful places like the template or your blog. Blogger also changed the "Edit Posts" page and has removed some of the icons.
Migration to Google Accounts
Blogger moves to Google Accounts, so your account will be more secure and you don't have to remember extra credentials. You'll be able to migrate your Blogger account soon, or you can create a new blog from your Google Account.
The new Blogger version will be available as invitation-only for the moment. "The Blogger in beta program is going to start out small, so only a low percentage of people who log in to Blogger will see the option to switch over. If you're one of them, you'll see a blue box in the sidebar of your dashboard highlighting the new Blogger in beta."
If you want to test the new Blogger by creating a new blog you can do that at beta.blogger.com. Here's a test blog created with the new platform and a tour that shows the new features.
I must say it's much faster to publish posts and upload pictures. Blogger also looks much better and it's more responsive. Although the advantages of the dynamic pages are obvious, it will be interesting to see if they will handle the traffic the same as the static pages. There's one area where I don't see improvements: the comment form is still on a separate page. All in all, the much expected Blogger update is one of the biggest Google news of the year.

That's easily changed (and always has been) by simply editing your template so that they're not in the conditional [ItemPage] tag.

The labels thing is the equivalent to the categories from wordpress.com?ReplyDelete

I don't see why it was labeled beta though. Kind of feels like it's a set back. Why not something as Blogger 2.0?ReplyDelete
Maybe Blogger 3.0 Beta. Or maybe more. Anyway, the beta is a sign of a new beginning.ReplyDelete
Why the new version doesn't prodive the function -- "RECENT COMMENT"?ReplyDelete
There's no need for that. You have feeds for comments, so it's easy to implement "Recent comments" with a feed-to-JavaScript (HTML) service like BuzzBoost from FeedBurner.ReplyDelete
and no backlinks improvement ?ReplyDelete
but so far this is awesome !! ^^
been waitin for this, after all the servers bein down, bloggers cant logged in, some people missing their template, etc.
but i guess this will make it up ^^
Nice to hear new update. Can't wait to test it.ReplyDelete

To implement the function "Recent Comments", you even don't need to use 3rd-party services. There is a block named "Feeds" in the new layout, which helps to filt out the author and date of comments.Just fill in the URL of Comment Feeds, and it's very simple.ReplyDelete
The most problem, however, is that the URL of Comment Feeds is not obvious!!! At least I CANNOT find it anywhere in the Settings or Template Layouts.
But it is easy to generate one. The URL of per-post comment feed is like
You can find it from the per-post page.
just cut the 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/' in the URL, then that's just the Comment Feed.
Read more about the feeds here.ReplyDelete
How is this going to affect blogs that are hosted off of Blogspot?ReplyDelete
To implement the function "Recent Comments", you even don't need to use 3rd-party services. There is a block named "Feeds" in the new layout.ReplyDelete
You're right. It's available at Template / Page elements / Add page element and you can use it to show the last titles from any feed. Unfortunately, you can't show a snippet from each item, so the FeedBurner's solution from one my comments above is better.
How is this going to affect blogs that are hosted off of Blogspot?ReplyDelete
Well, Michael, I think they'll implement all the features, except for the dynamic serving. For the moment, the sites not hosted on Blog*spot can't switch to the new platform.
I've updated my test blog with the recent comments and it looks pretty well. What Google should do is create a good spam detection system for comments, to remove the annoying captchas (verification text).ReplyDelete
I would like to see it possible to let team members add their profile pics to their posts with a simple tag. With the current version you have to do it all with javascript or something.ReplyDelete
So, when are all these shiny new features getting migrated over to the older blogs? I don't want a new blog, I want my old blog to have the new features. Gimme gimme gimme!ReplyDelete
You beat me to it e-r-o-x. I've wanted tagging on blogger for a long time, but I'm not creating a new blog to use that feature.ReplyDelete
The other features are nice for NEW blogs or in terms of scalability, but labels is the only thing that would really be of immediate use for existing blogs.
How long until it's rolled out to old blogs? 7 months?

Ironically the weakest feature I find from a google built interface is it's so darn hard to search them. I'd love to see all the blogs from Denver or something along those lines.ReplyDelete
If you're lucky, you'll see an invitation link in Blogger's Dashboard. Basically, you'll be sent to this place, but you'll actually migrate to the new platform if your username is in the testing's database. I'm not that anxious to switch, as there are still many bugs and the process is NOT reversible.ReplyDelete
I would love categories.ReplyDelete
Hey, Google, how about adding a feature that allows you to change the ORDER of posts? I can't stand it that my posts are published in the order they are CREATED as opposed to PUBLISHED.ReplyDelete
What's the different between CREATED and PUBLISHED? You mean updated? It would be nice to have a flag that makes a post reappear on the homepage if the update is important.ReplyDelete
Well, Michael, I think they'll implement all the features, except for the dynamic serving. For the moment, the sites not hosted on Blog*spot can't switch to the new platform.ReplyDelete
That's terrible. Are you planning on providing a way to migrate completely to the new system?
Another thing that would be useful is a way to do usable "more" posts. I've never seen one that works.
Will the labels be available for the older templates? Or is there a way to put them on my current template and I just missed it...?ReplyDelete
I also agree with devrock....that's something I've had trouble with too.
I upgraded...liking it so far :)
can i get an invite??? pleaseReplyDelete
Does the new version of Blogger do FTP? I noticed that my migrated blog does, but not a new one I just set up.ReplyDelete
Does the new version of Blogger do FTP?ReplyDelete
Not yet. See the previous comments.
I don't see why it was labeled beta though.ReplyDelete
Because it's Google. No slight against them, but it seems like the word "Beta" is turning into less an indication that the service in question is still being tested, and more a naming convention.
What I was wondering is How do we migrate.ReplyDelete
An why can't we use the beta, with my the current blog...
I don't want to create a new one.
another thing, I already have a Google Account, if use it to create a beta.blogger account will be still able to migrate my actual bogger account?
How do we migrate?ReplyDelete
If you're lucky, you'll see an invitation link in Blogger's Dashboard. If not, you'll have to wait. The platform is still in testing, so they can't accept everyone. Would you use a buggy Vista Beta or would you wait for the final version?
I already have a Google Account, if I use it to create a beta.blogger account will I still be able to migrate my actual blogger account?
Of course.

How long before blogs hosted elsewhere are updated?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 15, 2006 at 1:52 PM
I don't like the idea of dynamic blog pages. One of the main reasons that I like Blogger's output is that the pages are static. Which means that if the Blogger service is offline, my blog is still available (just not updateable).ReplyDelete
Even better, static pages made it easy for me to make a backup of the content of my blog.
Appearently the system wants me to use the beta from now on, and will not let me access the old ones anymore. Argh!ReplyDelete
New Templates?? when?ReplyDelete
is more simple now, and that's right =)...
We can Change the HTML of the template??
Will we ever be able to have our own UNIQUE URLs on Blogger without "BlogSpot" being part of the address? I would be willing to pay for that.ReplyDelete
I agree with the other poster that wanted to control the posting order. Currently it is in CREATED order but I would like it to use POSTED order. The work-around is to change the date of your post but it was hidden in a part of the editor that doesn't show up automatically.ReplyDelete
Excellent Updating...ReplyDelete
Is a grant idea!

Why do I need to sign in to Blogger everytime I post or edit a blog?ReplyDelete
Can't there be a setting to "remember" me?
- AnonymousAugust 16, 2006 at 2:59 AM
Known issues for Blogger in Beta says this:ReplyDelete
"The "Remember Me" login option will not work correctly in Internet Explorer 6.0. The best workaround is to simply use Firefox. However, if you prefer IE, you can add google.com to the list of allowed sites under Internet Options > Privacy."
I'm using Firefox, but I have to sign in each time I edit. I think I've signed in about 30 times already today, just getting my new Blogger Beta set up the way I want it! I never had to sign in with the old Blogger because it always "remembered" me.
Do we finally get a system that recognises the .eu top domain?ReplyDelete
Some years in the making, months in operation, Blogger still insists that .eu does not exist.
This is a very US-centric stance that we do not expect of truly global operations like Google. We all know that the USA thinks it owns the internet, but this is ridiculous.
Great system. It has created a new user-account for me on the new beta, without asking me if I wanted to switch, and without even migrating my old blogs - They are locked behing my "old" Blogger-account.ReplyDelete
Only way I can access my old blogs are through clicking my nickname here on this blog, or through doing a password-retrieval (which only works once when I log in right afterwards)
Some people like drag and drop, but what about for those of us who spent a long time coding in html & css and want to keep it that way? What happens to our existing blogs? Can we maintain the code using wordpad, and not deal with drag and drop?ReplyDelete
Of course you'll be able to edit the template's code. But some of the new features are really great: for example, changing the color of a page element like title with an instant preview.ReplyDelete
Can I hide the NAVBAR?ReplyDelete
if somebody knows how on this version let me know please.

Do you know if I can find a solution to this problem:ReplyDelete
After switching to beta-blogger, I received an e-mail saying that:
"You can now access your dashboard at http://beta.blogger.com using your Google Account and start using the new features right away."
This was 4 days ago. But since then, every time I try, I get this message:
"Your account is currently moving to Blogger in beta. You will get an email when your move is complete."
The help section does not provide help.
I have emailed support and am still waiting.
Thanks and regards.
I'm looking for some information on the beta blogger and attaching this account to the go.blogger.com blog setup for my mobile phone. I received my MMS message with my token and blog name. But when I put in my token and verification, I have the option to attach this new blog account to an existing "blogger.com" account, but when I put in my username and password I am receiving "User account not found" Is this not possible at the moment to attach my mobile blogging to my new @gmail.com beta.blogger.com account?ReplyDelete

How do I get the RSS feed from the beta version of Blogger? There is a difference in the Site feed settings compared to the classic version.ReplyDelete
currently in original bloggerReplyDelete
you can easily create a podcast by sending your blogger feed to feedburner, apparently this doesn't work with blogger beta yet. I hope this is something that will be addressed as many users create their podcasts using the ease of the blogger system.
The nature of blogger pages is that they are infrequently published pages of (generally) low complexity, and they are frequently demanded.ReplyDelete
"Produce content on demand" is completely the wrong policy for this, it is the wrong tool for the job.
I predict massive problems that scale directly with load, which may or may not be revealed during beta.
When that happens, blogger will go through a familiar sequence of attempted remediation steps.
First, the database connect cache settings will be played with. Then whatever the underlying system's object caching hoojie is will be turned on, and messed with extensively.
After that, they'll start messing with cluster settings for the server farm, and scratch their heads trying to scale out and cluster the backend data servers. During this phase, the overal size and configuration of the server farm may or may not be altered dramatically.
Somewhere along the line, someone smart will say, "AHA! Edge Caching for relatively static components!" and Akamai sales reps will get in on the game.
Finally, the development team, who hasn't been home in weeks, will be taken out back of the barn and shot, but they won't mind too much, death is preferable to the hell they live in. Perhaps whoever decided to go dynamic, based on someone's grad school project white paper will be shot with them, but more likely, he or she will be promoted to a position where he can do more damage.
{been there, done that. A significant part of my career was spent cleaning up this exact mess.}
I'd like to see Blogger or the new Google use Trackback features. Because this option has not been available it limits bloggers who want to go to the next level as bloggers.ReplyDelete

how do i get an invitation to switch to blogger beta.i want one.ReplyDelete
Officially, you need to see a "switch" link in the dashboard, but you can also try this page.ReplyDelete
You can't migrate yet if you have a blog with a lot of posts / comments (>1000) like I do or a team blog.
I got a message saying I was eligible for conversion and when I try to use the existing Google acct. function all I get is a blank screen. I don't get the option to click anything. I already have an existing Google account, as a matter of fact I use it as the email contact for my blog. I am using Firefox 2 and IE 7 and both are having the same issue.ReplyDelete
Only people that have large blogs (>2000 posts / comments) are not eligible for migration. Everyone else can migrate.ReplyDelete
Google promises that in a couple of weeks everyone will migrate to the new platform.
My blog isn't that large and I still can't migrate. I typed the invitation's url and a denial page appeared.ReplyDelete
It might have to do with the blog/account language or home country. I'm speculating though.
I'm really worried about the part where editing the template and fonts come in. I worked hard to create my blog exactly how I want it by just editing the template. That's why I chose blogger over a year ago over other blog services. I am a total control freak when it comes to css and html. I understand everyone doesn't need to know code, but I do, and I don't want shortcuts. Are they going to force us to change? Is there any place in the new blogger to have total control over the entire page elements? xDReplyDelete
After you upgrade to the new Blogger, you'll have the same template. If you want to upgrade to the new layout system, that lets you manage your template using drag and drop, there's a button that says "Upgrade". Google converts your template, but you can always go back to the old system. There's also a "view HTML" tab that lets you edit the template manually, but the syntax has changed so you have learn something about it before coding.ReplyDelete
So to answer your questions:
* Are they going to force us to change?
You'll be forced to change to the new Blogger, but not to the new templates.
* Is there any place in the new blogger to have total control over the entire page elements?
Yes. You can edit the code manually.

Words cannot express how I feel right now._ReplyDelete
The troubles with Blogger all began on January 10th, 2007 (that's January 09th, in the U.S.A.) when the bottom half of the TEMPLATE disappeared from the editing section._Strange, but true.
In fact, the page refused to scroll any lower than the word 'Layout'.
At first, I thought it was just a computer glitch...but after thirteen hours, I realized that the bottom half of the SCRIBE Template was just not gonna show.
So, I elected to SWITCH to the NEW Blogger. _It was a huge mistake; and one which I will live to regret._
On January 11th, 2007, the fonts began to overlap, so I tried the UPGRADE YOUR TEMPLATE button._
But that only caused even more problems, so I tried to sign in using the Old Blogger. Of course, by this time, all the pages had been moved to the New one.
Well, there is now...no "Republish Index Only"; Clicking on the RECENT Pages will not "go backwards in time", as only the TEN most Recent Pages will show up on the left hand side; I cannot retrieve any of the music nor videos which I had placed at the bottom (outside) the actual post pages...and every html thing (plus my profile pictures) which were on my online diary from December 2004 until now...Are All Gone.
Yippee Dee Doo Dahh, Yippee Dee Dayy, my oh my what a wonderful day!
- - -
I've learned a serious lesson. _ Not everything NEW should be considered good.
_ Come to think of it...if this old / new Blogger was an aircraft in the process of developing technical malfunctions (since half the Template disappeared)...Well...by now it would've crashed.

Here's how to edit Blogger's template to replace the address of Blogger's feed with FeedBurner's feed (in the header).ReplyDelete
For the "Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom)" link, you should try to find

in the template (expand widget templates) and replace it with a link to your FeedBurner feed.

My biggest issue is that I can't find a way to manually republish my blog. I have several pages that have been massively edited, but they still have the url with the old title. Even though the title has updated on the page itself, the unique url still works off of the old title. In other words, "Camping Trip on Sunday" was the old title. The url ending with camping-trip-on-sunday.html. That was in error, so I changed the title to Camping Trip on Saturday. However, the url remains the same :(.ReplyDelete
For the latest anonymous, who said: "I edited the title, but the URL remained the same":ReplyDelete
That's one of the best FEATURES of the new Blogger. The address should remain the same after creating a post (it's called a permalink, or a permanent link). People put that link in their sites, so it's a good idea to have the same URL, even if you change the title.
Maybe Blogger shouldn't use the title to build the URL. They could use numbers: blogname.blogspot.com/?p=123.
Great stuff, I'm converting all my blogs right now. But I can't find a new version of the blogthis! bookmarklet that supports labels. Does anyone know if this exists?ReplyDelete

Lately, the new blogger has given me alot of headache. I wanted to have a change of blogskin, however, the code that i got from blogskins.com could not function when i pasted them in the "edit HTML" page.Besides, it refused to upload the code, stating that there was an error.HOwever, i tried this same code in the old blogger, and it could work. It would be great if you could tell me why this is so.ReplyDelete
It did work when i pasted the code in the "page elements" underhtml/Java.
911 big time. really.
I don't want to switch! Is there any way I can continue on blogspot without linking my blog to my gmail account? What on earth do you do with anonymous blogs? Create anonymous Gmail accounts?ReplyDelete
You don't have to create a new Gmail account, you can just create a new Google account and migrate your blogs to that account.ReplyDelete
There are a lot of ways to keep your blog anonymous: you can disable the profile (uncheck "Show my profile" at blogger.com/edit-profile.g) or remove the author name in the template.
Spicy Chai, here's the only way I have found to avoid changing. Set yourself up as a second author on your blog, and post from that exclusively from now on. Blogger only bugs the blog owner, not any second authors.ReplyDelete
I made the mistake of switching and hate it. It takes miles longer to wait for a simple change to publish, because it has to go through the whole blog (I want the "publish index only" option back), it is less efficient, and now, I am still signed in when I search Google, etc., as well, so the buggers can spy on me. Oftentimes, Blogger forgets I am logged in, even when I do not log out of it or out of Google, so I have to type in a longer username (my email address) for the new account.
Load of rubbish, really, Don't know why they bothered with annoying users. They should have held any changes back till they improved Blogger.
Actually, unlike the old Blogger, any change is instant. If you make a change in the settings or in the template, you don't have republish all the posts to propagate the settings because the new Blogger serves pages dynamically (no more static pages).ReplyDelete
Google moved Blogger users to Google Accounts for more reasons:
-> they want a single username/password for all Google services
-> Blogger moved all the databases on Google servers, so they had to integrate the authentication system. Besides, Google says they have a much more secure system than Blogger's, so it's more difficult for someone to crack your account
-> because you use a Google Account for your Blogger blogs, it's much easier to integrate with other Google properties: for example, in the future you could add photos from Picasa Web Albums or your public calendar by clicking a button.
They should have held any changes back till they improved Blogger.
Google bought Blogger in 2003 and made a lot of changes since then: they removed the paid accounts (Blogger Pro), added photo uploading, comments, labels, drag-and-drop template editing, permissions, widgets.
I like the new blogger - BUT, PLEASE ADD A WAY TO CHANGE THE ORDER OF THE POSTS. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT HAVING THE NEWEST POST AT THE TOP IS FREAKING WEIRD. A STORY STARTS AT THE BEGINNING AND THEN YOU READ DOWN - NOT UP.ReplyDelete

Hate the forced changeover. I don't want to use my email as a username and I don't trust Google to safeguard my privacy. I had a Google account for yonks, but have so far successfully avoided having my blogs lured across. Alas, it's too late for the 'second author' option now. Grrr.ReplyDelete
I wonder--if I don't comply, will my existing blogs be deleted? For now I've stopped posting, but what's rich is that I can't moderate/publish comments anymore!
If you don't comply, you won't be able to post anything. I doubt that your posts will be deleted, as there's no policy for deleting inactive blogs.ReplyDelete
About the second account, here's what you can do:
* migrate to the new Blogger
* add yourself as a collaborator (use a new email address)
* open the invitation message and create a new Google account for that email address
* after you accept the invitation, you can become administrator using the second account as well and use the second Google account only for Blogger.
Does it make sense to you?
Yeah, but I don't want to create a new email address just for this crap.ReplyDelete
It's reassuring to hear that there is no policy of deleting inactive blogs. Hope that doesn't change. And I'm still annoyed that I can't publish a very informative comment on one of my older posts which has landed in my inbox without re-registering (grrr).
Google is taking liberties and annoying users. I'm turning off it.
i have problem everytime i wanna sign in to the new version of blogger. the word " loading....." is always there but still i cant get in.what is wrong????????ReplyDelete
An alternative way to log in to Blogger is this page:ReplyDelete
I have a blog but can't remember my user name and my e-mail address is not being accepted. Is there no contact e-mail address so I can contact the administration to get the information?ReplyDelete
I am a senior "blonde"...lol... and these things happen but there must be some way for me to get through to them. I don't want to lose access to my Blog. HELP???
I like the new blogger. Love it in fact. But only for the new blog that I've launched. I can't get my old blog to actually use the new templates. Perhaps this is because its a hosted blog? I had no problem moving an old blog that is hosted at blogspot.com onto the new template (you just have to pick a new template, then do "update template"). But that option still doesn't appear for my hosted blog, www.expreference.com.ReplyDelete
The template for that one is all messed up by the new blogger system, so any advice would be awesome!

So far the new Blogger is a total nightmare, since it won't "accept" any of my new blog templates. It keeps refusing to let me create anything new, claiming that they don't like my HTML.ReplyDelete
Why should the heck should they care? It worked just fine before on my old Blogger templates, which have been "grandfathered" into the new blogger. Why can't my new templates be accepted, then, since they're just slightly changed cut-and-paste versions of my old code anyway?
First, Ed, consider starting with an original, unmodified copy of your template and reintroduce your modifications one at a time, this way you might be able to determine exactly what part of your template is breaking.ReplyDelete
Second, I've seen several questions asking how to reorder posts. Although complex reordering will be difficult, I have a quick solution for moving an old post to the front of the queue:
- In the 'Posting' -> 'Edit Posts' tab, click the 'Edit' link corresponding to the post. This will open the editor for that post.
- Copy and paste the content into a text editor
- Next, create a new post
- Paste the content into the new post editor and save it.
- If everything in the new post looks good, you can choose to remove the old post or leave it to preserve your history. The new post should appear at the top of the page.

Ever since I upgraded from Old Blogger to New Blogger, I've been unable to search for old posts from the edit page. Every time I do, I get an error message.ReplyDelete
At first the error code was bX-kurmnp. Then when I cleared my cache and cookies, the error code changed to bX-i1habf.
I sent Blogger Support an email about the problem on April 20, but haven't yet had a response. I posted the problem to the Blogger Help Forum a few days later and so far have had only one response (suggesting that I clear my cache and cookies, which didn't solve the problem).
It's very frustrating. I can't call up old posts for revision, correction, or updating.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can enable quick editing (go to Settings / Basic / enable "Show Quick Editing on your Blog"). Use Google to search your site.
site:blogname.blogspot.com your query
Assuming you're logged in, you'll see a link at the end of the post that lets you edit the post.

That's a neat work-around. Unfortunately I can't make it work either, perhaps because I don't use Blogspot. I've had "show quick editing" enabled for a long time and have never seen the edit link in a post.
Then use the comment link from each of the posts. Usually it looks like:ReplyDelete
Replace comment.g with post-edit.g.

i have my own blog and want to create more pages,i have tried doing for ages..imhaving a blond moment ...again lol can anyone help me please,email@example.com
I just upgraded my main blog to use the Page Elements thing. I didn't upgrade the 1st time around because I was going to lose my customizations. Since I have a bit more free time now, I decided to recustomize from scratch. So far so good for the new Blogger format. Definitely much more user-friendly and easy to use, yet still allowing user HTML customization(s). With a little bit of testing and twisting here and there, I think we can make most out of it if you know what you're doing. If not, just Blingo it!ReplyDelete
When will we have new layouts to pick from?ReplyDelete
Kudos yaar. I am a popular blogger from Tamilnadu, India . The great thing about this new blogger is the modular elements. great tweaks are possible even for a new bee. I can practically change the ELEMENTS in a minute to give a new feel. As a usabality consultant this is great guys gals. Too see it in action have a look at my blog, though it is in my mother tongue Tamil.. HEREReplyDelete

1976 Carter VS. Ford
The Living Room Candidate
"Secrecy," Carter, 1976
CARTER: We need a sunshine law in Washington to open up the deliberations of the executive and legislative branches of government to the public, so that we can understand what decisions are made about our own lives, what went on behind those locked doors. There's no doubt in my mind that every lobbyist in Washington knows what goes on behind those locked doors, when the Congress is passing a tax measure or spending our tax money. But I was a governor of 5 million people, and I didn't know, so we need a sunshine law to open up government so the people can understand it.
MALE NARRATOR: Vote for [with TEXT] Jimmy Carter: A leader, for a change.
"Secrecy," 1976 Democratic Presidential Campaign Committee, Inc., 1976
Maker: Gerald RafshoonVideo courtesy of the Jimmy Carter Library.
From Museum of the Moving Image, The Living Room Candidate: Presidential Campaign Commercials 1952-2012.
www.livingroomcandidate.org/commercials/1976/secrecy (accessed December 10, 2023).
On August 9, 1974, after a Senate investigation revealed his direct involvement in the cover-up of the Watergate break-in, Richard Nixon became the first president in American history to resign from office. Nixon was succeeded by Gerald Ford, who had been appointed vice president after a bribery scandal forced Spiro Agnew's resignation in October 1973. These scandals and the televised Watergate hearings, which resulted in the conviction and imprisonment of 25 Nixon administration officials, shattered the public's trust in the government. In a 1974 poll, 43 percent of respondents said that they had "hardly any" faith in the executive branch. As a result, the 1976 election was dominated by issues of integrity and character. Hoping to put the Watergate affair to rest, President Ford unconditionally pardoned Nixon in September 1974, but the move hurt Ford's political standing. Ford won the Republican nomination only after fighting off a strong challenge from Ronald Reagan.
The Democrats nominated Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, a former naval officer and peanut farmer. Carter, who promised, "I will never tell a lie to the American people," ran a brilliant campaign as an outsider, offering a fresh change from Washington politics as usual.
Walter Mondale for vice president
"Leadership for a Change"
Jimmy Carter was campaigning to become the first president from the Deep South since 1849. His ads, created by Atlanta advertising executive Gerald Rafshoon, skillfully made use of his heritage. They portrayed him as honest, hardworking, untainted by Washington politics, and almost mythically connected to America's agricultural past--a non-lawyer who knew the value of manual labor. His campaign is best summarized by the five-minute
Yet establishing a farming background was not enough to qualify a candidate for the presidency. As the campaign progressed, Carter was made to look more and more presidential. Having emphasized his southern roots in his early ads, Carter appeared in a series of spots, produced late in the campaign, in a formal indoor setting wearing a suit and tie.
Robert Dole for vice president
"He's Making Us Proud Again"
As a candidate, President Ford was in the unenviable position of being the incumbent at a time when Americans had lost their faith in the presidency. Not surprisingly, Ford's ads pictured him as a different kind of leader from Richard Nixon. They consistently portrayed him as a regular guy and a nonimperial president. Spots filmed inside the White House showed him dressed casually, with an open collar and no tie. They also claimed that Ford was responsible for turning the country around and leading it out of the Watergate nightmare.
With the Vietnam war over, inflation beginning to ease, and the country in its bicentennial year, the Ford campaign produced a series of ads showing a montage of happy Americans accompanied by an upbeat song featuring the lyrics, "I'm feeling good about America, I'm feeling good about me."
Largely because of his pardon of Nixon, Ford found himself trailing in the polls through much of the campaign. As a result, the Republicans ran ads that capitalized on voters' doubts about the relatively unknown Jimmy Carter. In one series of man-in-the-street ads filmed in Atlanta, the Georgia voters who were presumably most familiar with Carter criticized his record as governor. Carter would use the same technique during his 1980 campaign against former California Governor Ronald Reagan.

|Name :
|Vulcan Civil War
|Universe :
|Prime Timeline
|Year :
The NX-01 was assigned to investigate the bombing. They discovered DNA on the bomb fragments which indicated that it had been planted by T'Pau, a member of a Vulcan faction known as the Syrrannites. The Syrrannites believed that the High Command were following a distorted version of Surak's teachings; their own philosophy stressed pacifism as a central tenet of Vulcan life. [1]
During the investigation T'Pol received an IDIC symbol from her mother which contained a map showing a route into the Forge, a desert region on Vulcan. The Syrrannites were known to inhabit the T'Karath Sanctuary in the Forge, and T'Pol and Captain Archer decided to follow the route in an attempt to contact the group. A natural dampening field in the region prevented most forms of technology from working, making it an ideal hiding place for the rebels. [1]
Whilst Archer and T'Pol were away, further analysis of the bomb debris revealed that in fact the DNA evidence had been planted. Ambassador Soval performed a mind meld on one of the badly injured survivors of the bombing and was able to see an image of the bomber - none other than Stel, the Chief Investigator of the Security Directorate. The ship was unable to communicate this information to Archer due to the dampening field in the Forge. Archer, meanwhile, encountered a man named Arev in the Forge. Arev was mortally injured in a storm; before dying he mind melded with Archer, speaking the Vulcan word "remember". [1]
Archer and T'Pol subsequently located the T'Karath Sanctuary and were captured by the Syrrannites. T'Pau denied any knowledge of the bombing, claiming she had not left the Forge in over two years. T'Pau admitted that Arev was in fact Syrran, leader of the Syrrannites. He had been carrying Surak's katra - the sum of his memories and personality - which he had discovered in 2137 residing in a katric arc on Vulcan. Syrran had used the mind meld to transfer the katra to Archer, giving him memories of the Great Awakening nearly two millennia before. T'Pau attempted to remove the katra from Archer, but was unable to accomplish this. [2]
On Enterprise V'Las, Chief Administrator of the High Command, revealed that evidence had been found linking Stel to the Syrrannites. Commander Tucker was dubious since he was beginning to suspect that the entire bombing had in fact been arranged by V'Las. Soval revealed that V'Las had long been planning a full scale war against the Andorians, and it would be highly advantageous to him to be able to discredit a political faction which advocated pacifism in the run-up to the war. Enterprise attempted to retrieve Archer and T'Pol from the Forge, but the ship was forced off by Vulcan vessels after a brief fire fight and retreated from the planet. Disobeying an order to return to Earth, Commander Tucker set a course for Andoria. [2]
As soon as the ship was clear of the planet V'Las ordered a full scale bombing of the Forge. Archer, acting under the influence of Surak's katra, led T'Pol and T'Pau to an underground chamber containing the Kir'Shara, an ancient Vulcan relic. As he brought the artefact back to the T'Karath Sanctuary the High Command's bombers zeroed in, destroying the Sanctuary and killing many of the Syrrannites, including T'Pol's mother T'Les. [2]
Enterprise travelled to Andorian space where they located Commander Shran's task force and informed him of the impending Vulcan attack. Shran was disbelieving, and under orders from his superiors he kidnapped Ambassador Soval from the ship and tortured him for further information. Soval was able to convince Shran that he was telling the truth, and Shran led a force of Enterprise and six Andorian warships to meet the Vulcan attack. A brief but fierce battle between the two sides resulted. [3]
Back on Vulcan, Archer was attempting to reach the capital city with the Kir'Shara. Although T'Pol was captured by Vulcan forces Archer and T'Pau were able to contact her husband Koss and get the security access codes to allow them to beam into the High Command. There Archer activated the Kir'Shara - and the device projected a holographic image of the original teachings of Surak in his own words. V'Las attempted to destroy the device, but the rest of the High Command turned on him and he was removed from office. The Vulcan fleet was ordered to stand down, ending the battle with the Andorians. [3]
The civil war was a relatively brief affair with little actual fighting - and the majority of the fighting that did occur was against the Humans and the Andorians rather than between the Vulcans themselves. However, the consequences of the war were profound. V'Las was removed from office, and shortly afterwards the High Command itself was dissolved. One of the first actions of the new leadership would be to greatly reduce the "supervision" of Earth, allowing Humanity to stand alone for the first time since First Contact. Although it would take years to translate the teachings of Surak, this would eventually result in a profound change to Vulcan culture. [3] T'Pau herself would go on to become one of the most important leaders on Vulcan, and the first person ever to refuse a place on the Federation Council. [4]

We outline elements such as the legal procedures to be followed and statutory redundancy pay, along with other key principles concerned with the redundancy of employees.
We consider the main principles involved concerning the redundancy of employees including the legal procedures to be followed and statutory redundancy pay. If you are an employer in the Richmond area we, at Adams Tax and Accountancy Services, can provide you with assistance or any additional information required.
There have been many changes to employment law and regulations in the last few years. A key area is the freedom or lack of freedom to make an individual redundant.
An employee's employment can be terminated at any time but unless the redundancy is fair an Employment Tribunal may find the employer guilty of unfair dismissal.
We set out below the main principles involved concerning the redundancy of employees. We have written this factsheet in an accessible and understandable way but some of the issues may be very complicated.
Professional advice should be sought before any action is taken.
Rather than make employees redundant, the government has introduced the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS), also known as the furlough scheme, open to all UK employers and extended until 30 September 2021. The extended CJRS can be used for employees on any work pattern including full time furlough. When on furlough, an employee can not undertake work for or on behalf of the business, but they can undertake training or voluntary work. Employers can use a portal to claim for 80% of furloughed employees' usual monthly wage costs, up to £2,500 a month up until 30 June 2021.
From 1 July onwards the employer must pay furloughed employees 80% of their wages up to a cap of £2,500 but the government contribution will reduce to a maximum of 70% of furloughed employees' monthly wage costs, up to £2,187.50. For August and September the government contribution is reduced to 60% and up to £1,875.
For periods from 1 November 2020 up to and including 30 April 2021 an employer can claim for employees who were employed and on their PAYE payroll on 30 October 2020. The employer must have made a PAYE Real Time Information (RTI) submission to HMRC between 20 March 2020 and 30 October 2020, notifying a payment of earnings for that employee.
For periods starting on or after 1 May 2021, an employer can put the employee on furlough as long as they were employed by the employer on 2 March 2021. The employer must have made a RTI submission to HMRC from 20 March 2020 and 2 March 2021.
Employers should discuss with their staff and make any changes to the employment contract by agreement and may need to seek legal advice on the process. Furloughed employees can be on any type of contract including employees on agency contracts or on flexible or zero-hour contracts. If workers are required to complete online training courses whilst they are furloughed, then they must be paid at least the NLW/NMW for the time spent training, even if this is more than the 80% of their wage that will be subsidised.
If an employee is eligible for Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) or Maternity Allowance, the normal rules apply. If an employer offers enhanced (earnings-related) contractual pay to women on Maternity Leave, this is included as wage costs that can be claimed through the scheme. The same principles apply where an employee qualifies for contractual adoption, paternity or shared parental pay.
Under the Employment Rights Act 1996, redundancy arises when employees are dismissed because:
In other words, the business reasons for redundancy do not relate to an individual but to a position(s) within the business.
Employers who propose to dismiss as redundant 20 or more employees at one establishment have a statutory duty to consult representatives of any recognised independent trade union, or if no trade union is recognised, other elected representatives of the affected employees.
Consultation should begin in good time and must begin:
Employees on a fixed-term contract which come to a natural end will be excluded from collective redundancy. However, where such a contract is being terminated early because of a redundancy situation the exemption will not apply.
Employers also have a statutory duty to notify the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) if they propose to make 20 or more workers redundant at one establishment over a period of 90 days or less.
If an employer fails to consult, a Tribunal has discretion to make a protective award of up to 90 days pay.
It is good practice in all organisations however, regardless of size and number of employees to be dismissed, for employers to consult with employees or their elected representatives at an early enough stage to allow discussion as to whether the proposed redundancies are necessary at all. Then they should ensure that individuals are made aware of the contents of any agreed procedures and of the opportunities available for consultation and for making representations. It must be remembered that redundancy is a form of dismissal and although it is not a requirement to follow a disciplinary and dismissal procedure which satisfies the requirements of the ACAS Code of Practice, namely to include a letter setting out the reasons for the potential redundancy, a meeting and an appeal process, it is best practice to do so.
Employers have a statutory duty to disclose in writing to the appropriate representatives the following information so they can play a constructive part in the consultation process:
To ensure that employees are not unfairly selected for redundancy, the selection criteria should be objective, fair and consistent. They should be agreed with employee representatives and an appeals procedure should be established.
Examples of such criteria include attendance and live disciplinary records, experience and capability. The chosen criteria should be measurable and consistently applied. Non–compulsory selection criteria include voluntary redundancy and early retirement, although it is sensible to agree management's right to decide whether or not such an application is accepted or not.
Employers should also consider whether employees likely to be affected by redundancy could be offered suitable alternative work within the organisation or any associate company.
Employees who are under notice of redundancy and have been continuously employed for more than two years, qualify for a reasonable amount of paid time off to look for another job or to arrange training.
An employee will be deemed to have been unfairly selected for redundancy for the following reasons:
Employees who have at least two years' continuous service qualify for a redundancy payment
The entitlement is as follows:
A week's pay is that to which the employee is entitled under his or her terms of contract as at the date the employer gives minimum notice to the employee. The maximum statutory limit for a week's pay is £544 from 6 April 2021, and the maximum service to be taken into account is 20 years. This means that the maximum statutory payment cannot exceed 30 weeks' pay or £16,320. Employers may, of course, pay in excess of the statutory minimum.
The employee is also entitled to a period of notice or payment in lieu of notice by statute and their contract of employment.
If you are an employer in the Richmond area we will be more than happy to provide you with assistance or any additional information required on redundancy procedures so please do contact us at Adams Tax and Accountancy Services.

Executive Summary
I believe that almost every college students have played a game called "Greedy Snake" in our childhood. At that time, we played it on the cellphone, on the computer or on the PSP. However, we are always using the keyboard to control the games we played. Now, our final project could bring you something new, that is a "Gesture Controlled Greedy Snake". It means that, using the gesture, the keyboard is never required to play the game. Amazing? Read the following wiki to know how we make it happens!
Basically, we are using the kinect from Microsoft and the Beagle Board XM from Texas Instrument to accomplish our gesture game. The program for the game is programmed on the QT-Linux. Besides, we use the cross compiling to compile the program to make the game run on the beagle board.
After our previous work, our "Gesture Greedy Snake" is completed, and works pretty good. The snake can be controlled by our gestures smoothly. The game reminds us a different style of childhood memory.
Installation Instructions
1 x Kinect
1 x BeagleBoard xM
1 x DVI to HDMI wire
1 x Monitor
1 x Keyboard
1 x Mouse
The source files for the project can be downloaded from https://github.com/Astroricks/Snake-Game-with-Kinect-on-BeagleBoard-xM . Once you have set up the developing environment as in the following instructions, you can download the files, playing with the game or making changes.
We are using the drivers provided by Omek. The driver files can be found at the Beckon™ SDK 2.4 – BeagleBoard-xM Edition installation page, and a developer's guide is provided at the documentation page. (You may need to register first.) Instructions in this blog are also very useful.
Although the developer's guide introduces how to do the installation and configuration, we have found that it takes much longer than we originally thought, and errors came out occasionally. It seems that the developer's guide is not very well organized and not detailed enought anyway. So we arranged our instruction and configuration procedures as below:
1. Download the image package and burn it into the SD card
Download the image package Beckon-Image-2.4.19872.tar.gz as mentioned above onto your Linux PC. Then extract it by entering
host$ tar -xvzf <ImageFileName>
Run the following command to make sure you have bash installed.
host$ sudo apt-get install bash
Insert your SD card using a card reader/writer. Run the following command:
host$ sudo bash mkcard.sh /dev/<sdX> beagle-omek
Note: This action will wipe out and rewrite the SD card so make sure the files in it are backed up. The name of the SD card can be viewed in Disk Utility. If you mistakenly use the main OS device name this script can erase your entire OS.
2. Run the sample application
Plug the sensor into the BeagleBoard-xM USB port. Ensure the mouse and keyboard are connected to the BeagleBoard-xM USB port. Connect the BeagleBoard-xM to the monitor with an HDMI cable. Connect the BeagleBoard-xM power supply and wait for the boot process to reach the login prompt, login as user root (no password is required). Now it's ready to run the sample applications on the BeagleBoard-xM.
Note: Details about running the samples can be found in the developer's guide from page 9 to 11. The Kinect will react properly only if the player is within an appropriate distance (about 1m - 5m).
Note: The following instruction is about how to set up the environment for developing. If you don't want to do the development, you can just skip that.
3. Setting up your Linux development PC
Download Beckon-SDK-2.4.19872.tar.gz and extract it onto your host PC (this is the actual SDK which contains headers, libraries, documentation, makefiles, etc...) The SDK provides the tools to develop a motion-tracking and gesture-based application that can run on the BeagleBoard-xM. After developing the application, cross-compile it onto the Linux PC and then copy the image onto the BeagleBoard-xM via external USB storage.
1) Download the Linux ARM cross toolchain:
For 32-bit Ubuntu you will want to download this file: http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains/angstrom-2011.03-i686-linux-armv7a-linux-gnueabi-toolchain-qte-4.6.3.tar.bz2
For 64-bit Ubuntu you will want to download this file: http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains/angstrom-2011.03-x86_64-linux-armv7a-linux-gnueabi-toolchain-qte-4.6.3.tar.bz2
Extract the downloaded archive into your system root directory:
host$ sudo tar -xvjf <ToolchainFileName> -C /
Note: If you extract the archive into a different directory, you should adjust the following instructions as well as the samples' makefiles accordingly.
2) Install the Qt embedded SDK for Angstrom/BeagleBoard:
Now that you have your cross compiler installed, you can compile Qt with it. First thing to do is to install zlib library:
host$ sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev
Then download the Open Source LGPL version of Qt libraries 4.6.2 for Embedded Linux here.
Note: Newest version of Qt libraries can be found here. We didn't test it since the 4.6.2 version works fine.
Extract the file you just downloaded:
host$ tar -xvzf <DownloadFileName>
You need to create a new make.conf. Run the following line to make a new mkspecs directory for the BeagleBoard Processor.
host$ cp -R <DownloadDirectory>/mkspecs/qws/linux-arm-g++/ <DownloadDirectory>/mkspecs/qws/linux-DM3730-g++/
Edit the qmake.conf file found in <DownloadDirectory>/mkspecs/qws/linux-DM3730-g++/ and overwrite it with the following lines.

The Snake Game
Our project is about how to use Microsoft Kinect Sensor to play snake game by the motion of you right hand(You can change to any part of your body if you would like to). We set a score section to record the highest score. Anybody who want to break our record are welcome(Currently the record is holding by Xinyu Cheng at 260). We've created a play demo and uploaded it to YouTube:
Play snake game with Kinect sensor on BeagleboardxM
Theory of Operation
The Main Idea
We are using the kinect as the sensor of our project. The provided algorithm of the kinect make it possible for us to get the coordinate of many joints of the body. In this case, we can judge the position and the motion of our hands or any other joints. Then, we can use the direction we get from the previous judgement to control the Greedy Snake. Our project is running with the idea.
The Technics Used
Technically, we can use QT to design our program and then cross-complie our project to the beagle-board. The Greedy Snake is an open-source QT game, and the tracking of the joint can be accomplished from modifying the Omek SDK. We have to modify both of their codes to connect the two parts together.
Work Breakdown
Yue Zhang
- Researched how to Burn the correct Image to the Beagle Board.
- Configure the Beagle Board to control the kinect.
- Implemented the motion based algorithm which makes the application runs more smoothly.
- Programmed for the part of motion algorithm.
Xinyu Cheng
- Researched how to configure the QT programming environment.
- Accomplished the cross-compiling on QT.
- Programming for the connection between the Snake Game and the Kinect SDK.
- Designed and Implemented the coordinate based algorithm.
Xia Li
- Researched how to run the provided SDK demo.
- Speed up for the demo.
- Designed the motion based algorithm.
- Programmed to improved the accuracy and speed of the game.
Future Work
Now, our game can work pretty good and smoothly. The future work for the project will mainly about how to improve the user interface and the game rules. We can also improve our algorithm for the direction judgement.
Conculsionly, our project works pretty good. Our Greedy Snake game runs very good and brings a lot of fun for us. During the develop process, we met lots of difficulties, we tried to solve them one by one. Finally, we solved almost all the problems and end up with a nice project.

iGoogle started as a custom Google homepage that allowed you to add gadgets for weather, news, mail and more. "The goal of this initiative is to bring together Google functionality, and content from across the web, in ways that are useful to our users," explained Google in 2005.
Just like My Yahoo, Netvibes and other custom start pages, iGoogle became a dashboard that gathered your favorite content from the web. It was a simplified feed reader, a platform for mini-apps and games, a great homepage for your browser. Social networks and smartphones addressed most of these use cases and iGoogle's popularity declined.
Most likely, Google will promote Google+ as an iGoogle replacement, even though it lacks many of its features. Google+ apps, themes and maybe even a dashboard-like interface could fill iGoogle's void.
iGoogle is not the only Google product that will be discontinued. Google Mini, Google Talk Chatback and the Symbian Google Search app will no longer be available, while the videos uploaded to Google Video will be automatically be migrated to YouTube starting from next month. "Google Video stopped taking uploads in May 2009. Later this summer we'll be moving the remaining hosted content to YouTube. Google Video users have until August 20 to migrate, delete or download their content. We'll then move all remaining Google Video content to YouTube as private videos that users can access in the YouTube video manager," mentions Google. You can manage the videos uploaded to Google Video using this page.

This section describes functions for operating on sequence objects, also called sequence generators or just sequences. Sequence objects are special single-row tables created with CREATE SEQUENCE. Sequence objects are commonly used to generate unique identifiers for rows of a table. The sequence functions, listed in Table 9.47, provide simple, multiuser-safe methods for obtaining successive sequence values from sequence objects.
Table 9.47. Sequence Functions
|Return Type
|Return value most recently obtained with
nextval for specified sequence
|Return value most recently obtained with
nextval for any sequence
|Advance sequence and return new value
|Set sequence's current value
|Set sequence's current value and
is_called flag
The sequence to be operated on by a sequence function is specified by
regclass argument, which is simply the OID of the sequence in the
pg_class system catalog. You do not have to look up the
OID by hand, however, since the
regclass data type's input
converter will do the work for you. Just write the sequence name enclosed
in single quotes so that it looks like a literal constant. For
compatibility with the handling of ordinary
SQL names, the string will be converted to lower case
unless it contains double quotes around the sequence name. Thus:
nextval('foo') operates on sequence
foonextval('FOO') operates on sequence
foonextval('"Foo"') operates on sequence
The sequence name can be schema-qualified if necessary:
nextval('myschema.foo') operates on
myschema.foonextval('"myschema".foo') same as above nextval('foo') searches search path for
See Section 8.18 for more information about
Before PostgreSQL 8.1, the arguments of the
sequence functions were of type
text, not
regclass, and
the above-described conversion from a text string to an OID value would
happen at run time during each call. For backward compatibility, this
facility still exists, but internally it is now handled as an implicit
coercion from
text to
regclass before the function is
When you write the argument of a sequence function as an unadorned
literal string, it becomes a constant of type
Since this is really just an OID, it will track the originally
identified sequence despite later renaming, schema reassignment,
etc. This "early binding" behavior is usually desirable for
sequence references in column defaults and views. But sometimes you might
want "late binding" where the sequence reference is resolved
at run time. To get late-binding behavior, force the constant to be
stored as a
text constant instead of
foo is looked up at runtime
Note that late binding was the only behavior supported in PostgreSQL releases before 8.1, so you might need to do this to preserve the semantics of old applications.
Of course, the argument of a sequence function can be an expression as well as a constant. If it is a text expression then the implicit coercion will result in a run-time lookup.
The available sequence functions are:
Advance the sequence object to its next value and return that
value. This is done atomically: even if multiple sessions
nextval concurrently, each will safely receive
a distinct sequence value.
If a sequence object has been created with default parameters,
nextval calls will return successive
values beginning with 1. Other behaviors can be obtained by using
special parameters in the CREATE SEQUENCE command;
see its command reference page for more information.
To avoid blocking concurrent transactions that obtain numbers from
the same sequence, a
nextval operation is never
rolled back; that is, once a value has been fetched it is considered
used and will not be returned again. This is true even if the
surrounding transaction later aborts, or if the calling query ends
up not using the value. For example an
INSERT with
ON CONFLICT clause will compute the to-be-inserted
tuple, including doing any required
calls, before detecting any conflict that would cause it to follow
ON CONFLICT rule instead. Such cases will leave
unused "holes" in the sequence of assigned values.
Thus, PostgreSQL sequence objects cannot
be used to obtain "gapless" sequences.
This function requires
UPDATE privilege on the sequence.
Return the value most recently obtained by
for this sequence in the current session. (An error is
reported if
nextval has never been called for this
sequence in this session.) Because this is returning
a session-local value, it gives a predictable answer whether or not
other sessions have executed
nextval since the
current session did.
This function requires
SELECT privilege on the sequence.
Return the value most recently returned by
nextval in the current session. This function is
identical to
currval, except that instead
of taking the sequence name as an argument it refers to whichever
nextval was most recently applied to
in the current session. It is an error to call
lastval if
has not yet been called in the current session.
This function requires
SELECT privilege on the last used sequence.
Reset the sequence object's counter value. The two-parameter
form sets the sequence's
last_value field to the
specified value and sets its
is_called field to
true, meaning that the next
nextval will advance the sequence before
returning a value. The value reported by
currval is
also set to the specified value. In the three-parameter form,
is_called can be set to either
true has the same effect as
the two-parameter form. If it is set to
false, the
nextval will return exactly the specified
value, and sequence advancement commences with the following
nextval. Furthermore, the value reported by
currval is not changed in this case. For example,
SELECT setval('foo', 42); Next
nextvalwill return 43 SELECT setval('foo', 42, true); Same as above SELECT setval('foo', 42, false); Next
nextvalwill return 42
The result returned by
setval is just the value of its
second argument.
Because sequences are non-transactional, changes made by
setval are not undone if the transaction rolls
This function requires
UPDATE privilege on the
