Using iPad App April 5, 2010

Yesterday, I stood in line with 300,000 other Apple fanatics, and bought an iPad. One of the first apps I downloaded was the WordPress app, that I am using right now. I don’t normally use WP as my regular blog. I like the Blogger interface better, and can embed video in my blog without anything special or a fee. But Blogger is changing the rules on May 1, when I will no longer be able to FTP my blog to my own server space. So this might be the time to set up a new blog with WP. I have four weeks to figure out what I am going to do: archive my old blog on my website, and use this WordPress account, or migrate my Blogger blog to my own domain name, or install WordPress on my own server space. This is a useful app to use on either my iPhone or my iPad. But I can also email a blog entry to my Blogger accept. Lots to consider.
