This is a quick test to see how the new iPhone WordPress App is working. So far so good. And here is how photos taken directly from the app will be attached.
And the great thing is that you can easily update your posts…
As you certainly noticed if you are subscribing to my RSS feed, I’ve played a little to much for my blog yesterday. I was looking at syndication, and started aggregating everything from my CorelDRAW.com blog. I’ve now removed all the entries from this site, but your RSS feed might still have some residuals. Sorry for that.
When working on my Mac, I’ve been using Ecto as my blog editor of choice. It gives me a lot of flexibility, enables me to write the drafts of my blog posts while off-line (I find airplanes a great place to write entries) and integrates nicely with Apple iPhoto. You can also customize it greatly and automated many tasks and repetitive HTML snippets quickly.
On the Windows front, I have also used Ecto for a while. While it works almost as well on Windows than on MacOS, except for the iPhoto integration obviously, you can feel that this is not a native application. Listening to episode 42 of Windows Weekly, I wanted to know more about the Windows Live applications from Microsoft, and especially the one to write blog posts: Windows Live Writer. And I have to say: Microsoft, great job!

I’ve just finished updating my blog to the latest version of WordPress (2.3.1) and have updated my theme and plug-ins… So far, everything seems to work great. I’ll continue to do a few tests over the week-end. If you notice anything out of the ordinary (outside the fact that I have posted on my blog), please let me know.
Just trying out some features of my blogging server… Sorry to add irrelevant messages to your RSS reader.
OK, WordPress has this cool feature that enables you to post blog entries by sending an email… so here is a quick try to see if everything works
OK, looks like this is becoming a habit of mine: Moving my blog! Well, this time should really be the last one for quite some time. The new URL to access my blog is blog.metrailler.net, and metrailler.net/blog will redirect you there. And this link include the new RSS feed URL. I am very sorry for all this moving around and really hope this is the last one for quite a while. I few of my posts from my previous server have not yet moved over, and I’ll hopefully get that done in the coming days.
I will now look at how to customize the template of this new blog hosting that I use, and will start working on getting my web site back to life. Stay tuned for more in the coming days
Well, even if I didn’t want this to happen, I am from now on moderating the posting of comments and the usage of trackbacks on my blog… just got spammed through trackbacks
Feel free to continue leaving comments and to add trackbacks to your own blog if you want… I’ll accept anything that is not specifically spam.
Yes, I know, I need to stop that… that’s why there is a simple redirect. My Weblog is now in its final position (until the next move). The full link to my weblog is gerard.metrailler.net/weblog/gerardm/, but you can also get there by going to metrailler.net/blog. For those who have RSS feeds, here are the new links for the atom feed, the RSS2 feed and the RSS feed. I can no longer guarantee that the old links will be available for much longer, so please update your aggregator links
First, thank you for subscribing to my weblog. I’ve been playing around with the configuration of the server. The new link to my weblog is gerard.metrailler.net/weblog. For those who have RSS feeds, here are the new links for the atom feed, the RSS2 feed and the RSS feed. The old link will still remain active until I have finished tweaking the configuration of my server.
