Post to Your Weblog

Ever have that perfect thought for your blog but forgotten it before you got back to your computer? With your wireless-enabled PDA, you can post as fast as you can tap from wherever you are.

To start with, you will need to be connected to the Internet [Hack #34] .

If your blog editing is entirely Web-based, then you can simply use your browser to add a new entry or edit an existing one. This procedure is no different than updating your blog from your PC.

Remote Access to Desktop Blogging Software

There is another solution if you use desktop software for editing your blog: use Virtual NetworkComputing (VNC, http://www.realvnc.com). With VNC, you can use your desktop blogging software [Hack #40] directly from your Palm device.

Palm-based Blogging Software

You can also run dedicated blogging software directly on your Palm device. These programs allow you to add or edit posts locally and update them on the Web. You need to have your hostname, login ID, and password to access your blog with these programs.
