For those who blog with Blogger, the only option for iPhone has been blogging by mail. This is not a bad option since you can also send photos to your blog as well as text. Now BlogPress allows more blogging flexibility:
- Edit older posts
- HTML formatting
- Post to multiple blogs including Blogger, MSN Live Spaces, WorsPress, Movable Type and TypePad
- Picasa photo loading
However there are issues. It is not really a WYSIWYG rich text editor as claimed. I think this is more a result of the developer's poor command of English. You can insert an image in the middle of your text. If you want rich text, or links you'll need to code them yourself. And s editing old posts is far from WYSIWYG: You need a basic knowledge of HTML to read as well as not screw up posts.
The app is a little pricey at $10. I hope the developer will grow it. If he can't make a real WYSIWYG editor (not a simple feat) then he needs to make some sort of HTML tagging feature or the posting abilities will remain what you can already do with free blogging by mail. The photos can't be resized from full screen and there are currently some rendering issues with the text field not showing type.
While overpriced the app is decent enough in what it really does that serious bloggers will probably be happy with the added function.
