Schedule: Handy property while you are away from your desk. You complete finishing a blog post but it could wait till the time you mention in the schedule to get published. Few bloggers have habit of publishing blog post on particular days in a week. If you have any posting schedule, then you can make blog post get published on that particular day.
Permalink: It is the ending part of the blog post URL. Usually, it is generated automatically based on the title of the blog post. But if you wish you could set 'custom Blog URL' to each blog post.
Location: Blogger can indicate the location from which blog is posted. Yet, it is not exact location. You can add New York, USA as location from a desk located in Singapore. But adding location adds value to the blog.
