AvantBlog is a very simple interface which will allow you to post to a blog from your Palm or WinCE device via AvantGo, which is the default browser at least on Palm devices. AvantBlog currently only works with standard Blogger.com accounts/blogs. Future versions have planned support for other blogging tools/systems. AvantBlog works directly from the Dented Reality server, communicating with the Blogger.com server to authenticate you (log you in) and then get a list of your available blogs. When you post, it checks to make sure you are logged in properly, then posts what you have written to the blog you want it on.
Features:
- Now supports Titles!
- Works in most handheld browsers (including AvantGo and Pocket IE)
- Uses my own Atom API implementation
- Uses sessions to manage authentication; log in once and you are authenticated each time until you log out!
- Post to any blog* you have access to, all presented in a simple select box
- Post as many times as you like, then synch and upload them all
- Edit posts before you synch them if you make a mistake
Requirements:
- Handheld device (like a Palm or Handheld PC) running AvantGo or a similar web channel/browser program
- About 3K on your handheld device to store the channel
- An Internet connection! (either directly from the handheld, or via the computer you synch with)
- A web log managed via Blogger.com (can be hosted remotely via FTP or on blogspot)
