First Post Using iBlogger

The software supports many other blogging platforms as well, but my interest was in using it on a Drupal site, and it certainly doesn't disappoint. The fact that it grabbed all my categories (taxonomy, in Drupal terms), and every previous blog entry, as soon as I added my blog was a huge "wow" moment for me. Being able to position images at the top, left, or right of the text is also great!

Previously, if I wanted to blog on my iPhone, I had to send the post to a special email address at my domain, and Drupal would go get it and post it to my blog. If I wanted to include a picture, I had to send it to a special Flickr email address instead, and Flickr would post it for me. Too much to remember! I actually have a note saved on my iPhone that tells me which method to use depending on whether or not an image upload was necessary!

iBlogger costs $9.99 and is available on the App Store right now. I haven't tested it with any other blogging platform, but I can say that it's great for Drupal blogs.

This is a link, obviously...
