I'm developing a blog-tool and would like to be able to upload pictures with posts. The MetaWeblog API seems to be the right (and only?) thing. But which...
I believe that Movable Type supports the MetaWeblog API. I doubt Blogger will ever support the MetaWeblog API. Ev always made it seem it'd be the Blogger API...
Hola: El Wednesday 26 February 2003 11:46, dennisluemkemann ... For my blog server (Blogalia), I also miss functions for posting/deleting comments. The Blogger...
The specification does not describe "category". Is this an ID of a category? Is it possible to simply submit the full string of a category name along with a...
Although it's not doc'ed I found that there are two 'modes' of category support for metaWeblog API: Single category (SC) Multi category (MC) In SC, you simply...
... You're right it doesn't. It actually leaves it open to interpretation. In the implementations I've seen (Radio and Blogger) however, it is the string name...
Can someone clarify something for me? The spec says that metaWeblog.getCategories returns a struct. Is it suppose to be an array of structs? Or is it really a...

Dave: I note that the audblog folks are now supporting Movable Type... any word on how long it'll be before we see metaWeblog API support? Or is that just not...
I think it's totally nuts that they express compatibility in terms of products, not APIs. I hope someone competes with them and zigs to their zag. Dave ... ...
Diego Doval's review [1] of blogging API's, and the discussion that followed is an absolute must-read for developers working on either side of the interfaces....
A repost from my weblog: Dave Winer is proposing a new version of the MetaWeblog API, an XML-RPC interface for weblog publishing that's supported by ...
... the ... I hate to be disagreeable, but... yikes! IMO, most of that stuff is far better suited to app-specific APIs, or at least some sort of optional API...
It's going to take some time to digest this, but I'm sure you already knew that. It would be easier to point to, btw, if it were on the Web. Yahoo tends to...
I've already replied to this once, but it must have been eaten by a grue. ... API-based signup is already supported on Radio.Weblogs.Com, Salon Blogs,...
... That's what you get for letting your torch burn out. :) ... So why integrate a functional, pre-existing API into metaWeblog? If developers want to support...

Well, I gave this some thought -- and I'm sorry to disappoint, but I don't love the idea. :-( Let me explain with an analogy. Suppose I had a bus. I drove...
