Blogfing from rhe iphone

I installed the WordPress for iPhone application today, and this post is the result.

There are a lot of small drawbacks, but I like what they’ve put together so far. Some of the drawbacks come from the limitations of the iPhone itself, cut and paste is an obvious example here.

I like that photo attachments are included (kevin is attached.) The draft writing is easy, at least until you need to start dealing with HTML.

You can also view and edit a certain number of previous posts, which will be handy if I ever decide to fix the title misspellings.

As an aside, I just saw the commercial for Tropic Thunder and now I fear for the future.

Anyhow, as the misspellings in the title suggest, blogging on the iphone is by no means an expedient technique. I corrected spelling in the body, but the iPhone keyboard is still a drag. Thankfully the spelling correct/autocomplete helps speed things up. Oh, as another aside, how is it possible that I’ve missed the caps lock function all this time? Sigh.

Unfortunately, the experience was not without a crash of the app, which is a bummer. But an iPhone 1.0 app is like a 0.67 app everywhere else, so I fully expect improvements.
