    A New Way to Blog From Your HandheldPosted By: Ryan on Friday, July 09, 2004 12:47:44 PM
Hexlet Software has released a new blogging application for Palm OS devices. The app interfaces with many popular blogging tools to give you a new mobile way to blog.
The current beta program supports three major online blogging services: LiveJournal, Blogger and Movable Type. It supports multiple accounts, downloading a list of previous entries and other service specific features. You can also upload images from memory cards as well as pictures from the Treo 600 images database. The beta version requires Palm OS 3.5 or above and a internet connection. If you are unfamiliar with the concept of blogging, you may want to read Blogging 101. If you do not have your own blog, you can create one for free at either Live Journal or Blogger.

I just wanted to know, among PIC readers, how common blogging from your handheld is? Does anyone here actually blog from your Palm powered device, or even truly want to?  RE: Can we get a survey here...
I do, all the time. But since Blogger allows emailing in posts, I do all my blogging from SnapperMail. Having the "Send URL" options in Blazer and WebPro on my Treo is like having the "Blog This!" extension on my desktop browser. It's a nice seamless process, since after the email goes out, you get dropped right back into the web page you were viewing. RE: Can we get a survey here...
I've done this on occasion. The "Combee on Palm OS" site uses a desktop-based CMS system that doesn't support this kind of functionality, but other blogs that I run handle it. I did several posts to one of them when I was on the road at the PalmSource 2004 show. -- Ben Combee http://palmos.combee.net - PDA programmer weblog RE: Can we get a survey here...
I occasionally update my Xanga from my CLIE. I use Netfront, with the Xanga site itself, though. Can be a pain sometimes but is usually hassle-free. UZI4U182@suscom.net Main PDA: NX70v + WL100 http://clieflash.shorturl.com RE: Can we get a survey here...budrowilson @ 7/10/2004 3:43:26 PM #
Ok, that's what I wanted to know. Thanks for the responses! RE: Can we get a survey here...
I've blogged a few times from my handheld. Much prefer to do it wifi style from the patio. ;-) Michael Gray RE: Can we get a survey here...
I'll be doing it a lot more now that I have a Bluetooth phone to go with my Zod. That was the only thing holding me up.
Oh poo
It needs a real-time connection. I'd like a program that'd let me take a pic on my Zire71, add a comment and then hotsync and it'll post it to my blogger account. I don't think you understand the gravity of the situation. We're in space. RE: Oh poo
Then you need this application: ForPhotos from http://www.forallsystems.com/forphotos.shtml
It was noted here on PIC last October in the article http://www.palminfocenter.com/view_story.asp?ID=6105
