Yep! Widgets: Really good news! And the New Blogger importer is surely gonna make things easier for people migrating from Blogger to WP.
Shankar,
You are right, the new importer is something very useful. I too had this problem while importing posts from my old blog when I shifted to new domain.
There are some bugs there in the new version so be carefull if you are upgrading you Wp ,or wait till the bugs get fixed then upgrade..
Shashank,
I have not upgraded yet, will wait for some more reports on the new version.
You might already be aware that they release 2.2.1, because they had some security issues ?
You might want to check them and upgrade to 2.2.1
Good luck!
@WordPress Plugin Advice,
Yea I know that 2.2.1 is released. But I have not upgraded it.
