Ubuntu + WordPress + Blogging Client
Currently in my window XP, I’m using Blogdesk as my blogging tool. For my ubuntu, I’m still searching for the tool that have similar functionalities like blogdesk. But I can’t find any.
I’ve installed bloGTK and Drivel . ermm..but still, can’t match with blogdesk. Actually I need a blogging tools that can make my life easier to upload an image from my local drive.If you are using blogdesk, than you know what i mean.
Anyway, installing and configuring those two application is pretty easy.
sudo apt-get install drivel
sudo apt-get install blogtk

p/s: this post is using BloGTK1.1
Update :
update post and upload image using ScribeFire.
cool

arejae: You can use blogjet. Though its only for windows but it can be run under wine in Linux and has very useful features. I’ve written a few things about it on my blog, and there is a link somewhere in there where I got the instructions how to install it in Linux.

Blogdesk is a great program for XP. Am looking but can’t find a good Ubuntu alternative to it.

If you are using (k)Ubuntu 9.04, you can try out Bilbo

I have found a great alternative that seems to be the closest thing to an acceptable solution for the time being.
1. Using the Chrome Browser, I added the ScribeFire extension.
2. After installing and clicking on the link, I followed the instructions to set up my blog in the extension.
3. In the browsers Tool Menu, I clicked “Create Application Shortcut” once I was logged into my blog, which then game me the option to add ScribeFire to both my desktop and/or the Applications menu…and now loads without the usual browser mess…looking only like another piece of native software.
