Well, all new Blogger accounts from now on will automatically be created on Blogger Beta, according to Pete of Blogger Buzz, which requires creation of a Google Account. Guess we shouldn't be calling it "Beta" anymore...

However, Pete adds that "You can still create a new account on the old Blogger if you need to claim a mobile blog, join a team blog, or are using a language we haven’t added to the new version of Blogger."

Language support

On the language support front, at the moment Blogger say that "The Blogger Beta is now available in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. More languages will be coming shortly. Update (Nov 10): We've added Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, and simplified Chinese support to the new version of Blogger."
