I have found a new tool for blogging and will have to see what it does and kick the tires a bit. I found it through Sharp Reader, which I use to read through some RSS feeds once in a while. (RSS feeds are collections of links to stories, blogs, etc). That is how I get the unusual content that I do so many times. This will allows you to blog all your stuff off line (say on a laptop, or just you want to think about it before posting it, and maybe change it).
The program is called w.bloggar and has some WYSIWYG type functions to it so it looks like it would make some things that I do by hand easier. It also allows you to edit templates (the way your blog looks). Give it a try. (OH just found the spell checker... 2 more points!)
