Why would people want to publish a weblog using Blogger's services?
Whatever the reason that is why blogger.el was written to use
XML-RPC. weblogger.el built on blogger.el's work to support the
MetaWeblog API that many weblog frameworks (e.g. LiveJournal,
Wordpress) support.

If you would rather write a bunch of static files to the server, then
other Emacs-based solutions exist:

- BlogMax (http://www.billstclair.com/blogmax/blogmax.el)

- Planner.el (http://www.plannerlove.com/) Sacha Chua maintains
planner.el and uses it to publish her weblo
to integrate her del.icio.us tags with her journal entries that she
then publishes on her weblog.

And there are others....

Mark.
