    I have seen the changes on my blogs... and got this news hindustantimes.com/technology/IndustryTrends/Blogger-to-redirect-visitors-to-country-specific-URLs/SP-Article1-805213.aspx

    are you happy with this change in blogspot or is this good for webmasters or not?

    If you opening your blog from UK, US then it'll run on same url. If any other country then i'll change to country specific tlds.

    ex. i am opening "googleblog.blogspot.com" from India, so its shoing "googleblog.blogspot.in"

    I wonder if this will have any effect on the way of showing the search results? Those who lives in India will have a google that prioritizes Indian blogger blogs and so on and so forth? I think this is limiting us to country based audience.

    Hope it will not affect rankings and way of getting indexed.

    This decision by blogger seems really ridiculous as they haven't announced it before and I wonder whether this changes will have some good result for blogger or will limit country specific users. Hope it is too early to say anything about it.
