Graphical blogging client for GNOME
Graphical blogging client for GNOME

I have been meaning to setup a weblog client for a while now. I have tested a couple of blog clients and have settled on BloGTK.

It has a simple user interface but comprehensive features, although I did need to define a few Custom Tags before the editor supported all the formatting options I wanted. Setting up BloGTK is very simple for Ubuntu and Debain users requiring an aptitude install blogtk to get it installed and the following settings will connect to a Wordpress blog.

  • Server URL: http://blog.example.org/xmlrpc.php
  • Account: Your Username
  • Password: Your Password
  • Blogging System: Moveable Type

Now I can blog directly from my desktop, I am hoping it will encourage me to post more often.
