Testing iBlogger

Testing some iPhone blogging apps. First up, iBlogger, while nice looking, don't do landscape editing. Very disappointing. Seems stable in it's features and editing abilities. Landscape isn't a total deal breaker but it would sure help me liking it. Of course, the $9.99 price tag kills this, Mail.app does this type of blogging, and it's built into the OS.

iBlogger does offer nice editing of older posts, and draft saving built in. A "view in Safari" button brings up your blog so you can see your posts in the browser. You can add pictures, links, tags, and locations to your posts.

The interface is sleek, clean and easy to understand. Has all the features you could ask for and feels stable and refined. Quite close to being perfect if it offered landscape editing with the same functionality and lowered the price a few dollars couldn't hurt either. I can post the same blog for free numerous ways on my iPhone, the interface here isn't worth that much of a mark-up.

In all honesty, the more I type with it the more I like it. Seems landscape isn't such a big deal after all!
