Posted on 03. Feb, 2010 by Nana Kwabena Owusu in WWWPlus

For those of you who have been following our Blogging on the Go series and use Blogger as your platform of choice, I am sure you’ve been mumbling under your breath, what about us? Well this one is for you.

BlogPress Lite is a free iPhone app which allows you to administer your Blogger powered site while on the go. BlogPress Lite is optimized for the iPhone with features such as  Landscape editing mode and an auto-save feature which automatically saves your blog posts, when you have an incoming call.

BlogPress Lite as you may have guessed from the name, is a free version of a premium app, BlogPress. The lite version supports only Blogger and was made to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Blogger platform. Yes people, Blogger is that old. Here are the features from the BlogPress Lite website:

Support full options of blog, labels, publish date and online draft(private post)

A mini Rich-text, WYSIWYG editor: BlogPress editor is as easy as Word. Placing your photos anywhere in the text is now a few taps away!! even you don’t know html code. The posts will look the same as your editing.

No limitation and easy-to-use photo uploader. You can upload MORE THEN ONE photo in a single post to any supported platform. Photos will be uploaded either to your own Picasa Web Album.

Write once, multiple posts: By just one click!! you can send the same post to multiple blogs at various platforms. If you have more than one blog, this will definitely be a handy feature for you.

Landscape editing mode: Allow you input your article with “big finger” landscape keyboard.

I think if you have an iPhone and also run a blog using Blogger then this is a very good option for free. Best of all, the lite version supports multiple blogger sites. Get it from the App Store.

Here is a review of Blog Press Lite.

If these features are not enough for you, then upgrade to the premium app for $2.99 on the App Store. The features list looks impressive, especially since it supports  all the major blog platforms; Blogger, MSN Live Spaces, WordPress, Movable Type, TypePad, Live Journal, Drupal  and Joomla.

Let us know via the comments what you think of the App. Happy Blogging!
