The blogger front-end client that I am using to compose this post was written entirely from the ground up, by me over the last week or so. I am planning to release it under a BSD Style, free software license and donate it to the Chronicle Project.
The main thing that I wanted was a Java-based Blogger front-end. I am sure that there are other people who want the same thing! It was designed, in the first release, to offer about the same level of functionality as BlogBuddy does.
Right now it does everything (functionally speaking) that it needs to do. In fact, it does something I didnt think it would be able to, namely, deleting posts. Dangerous stuff, must remember to put an “are you sure?” confirmation in there somewhere!
Keep an eye on the main Chronicle Project website for updates and screenshots. If you’re interested in beta-testing it, let me know ahead of time, and I’ll get you a copy.
