Free For All: TBlogger

Finally, a reasonable application that will let me post from a WinMo device, right here on JAMM.

It took a little bit of investigation, and playing with, but Travelling Blogger, is the perfect solution for blogging on the go from a windows mobile device. It doesn’t offer a WYSIWYG editing interface, so it takes a little time to get it working right, and you will have to pull out any HTML skills that you have, to help with formatting your posts, but that’s not a lot to ask, is it?

The nice thing is that you can input all of your text and sync it with your site, without publishing, which saves as a draft. Upload all of your images directly from the mobile, then go to your WordPress dashboard, and edit and format if you don’t want to do it from the mobile.

TBlogger also caters for the split post formatting that WordPress uses. Travelling Blogger is specifically designed to work with WordPress and Meta-Blog powered sites.

I found this over at WMPoweruser, earlier in the week and took some time to try it before I unleashed it on you guys. The real credit though, should go to the developer, Darren Johnstone, and his motivation for creating the application. It holds up the old saying, “necessity is the mother of invention”. While I think of it though, how are you going to complete your free mobile blogging toolkit?

If your a windows mobile blogger, you mustn’t forget the best free screen capture application for WinMo, and that is IliumSofts ScreenCapture. You can’t go past it
