Blogger has rolled out a new feature called "Blog List," a sidebar widget that functions like a blogroll with a twist: instead of static links to your favorite blogs or sites, it displays the latest post from each external site's RSS feed.

You can put anything on the Blog List: news sites, podcasts, Twitter streams, search results, or anything else with a feed. The Blog List improves on Blogger's Link List page element by using blogs’ RSS and Atom feeds to show update times, post titles, and snippets.

Here’s a quick summary of the features, as listed on the Blogger dashboard:

* Link to blogs, web pages, and feeds from your blog’s sidebar, with an optional favicon
* For pages with RSS and Atom feeds, Blog List can show last updated time, post title, and a snippet of the latest post
* Sort links alphabetically or by last update time
* Show all links, or hide some behind a “show all” link
* Import subscriptions from Google Reader
* Blog List links are visible to search engine crawlers, so your blog’s PageRank and reputation flow to those you link to
