Many users of iPhone / touch administering or write blogs running Wordpress not heard the new Wordpress 2 , released last week, because it is a separate app from the old. So he does not appear in the gallery updates in iTunes. But an application is highly recommended!
Despite the previous Wordpress on the iPhone, I mainly used it to moderate comments. In fact, it's wonderful to do this so quickly and conveniently. Until recently I was using MovableType and had to administer comments "on the nail." Today, I devote my mornings to writing and blogging (since it has an early service homecare), as is the period of the day when my mind is more relaxed, and I get the rest free for other activities. In the intervals between one place or another, track and respond to blog comments on the iPhone itself.
But writing posts was a nightmare. The few times I did that I lost posts or portions of them because the application did not work so well in the oscillations or offline connection. Worse was to be typing and suddenly receive a call. All the work was going to suck! In Wordpress 2, to leave the program and then resume it, you go straight to the point where it stopped.
Apart from fixing numerous bugs, the interface also won a remodeled, especially the comments, which now shows the links of the Gravatar and commentator. It is also easier to switch between comments, posts and pages. And developers are preparing new tools for the next updates, like being able to direct comments and respond to push notifications. Wow!
Wordpress on other devices
Besides the iPhone, there's an official version of Wordpress for BlackBerry, available for download at the online store. Although we have no versions for other platforms, there are great solutions developed by third parties:
wpToGo (Android) - free application available at the online store, is a versatile and functional app that lets you manage multiple blogs at the same time running Wordpress. You can do advanced editing, such as fonts and upload photos, view previews and select categories. It also allows you to manage comments.
PocketSharp MT and moblog (Windows Mobile) - was a longtime user PocketSharp MT , and posted a lot on the blog, for years, while I used MovableType. Today, both he and the moblog support various platforms other than Wordpress, as TypePad, Blogger / Blogspot and LiveJournal. However, they are more focused and elaboration of posts, including drafts and reviews, working very well offline. There is no management comments. Both are free.
Wordmobi (Symbian) - open-source project developed by Brazilian Marcelo Barros de Almeida, is an application that lets you navigate between posts, comments, tags and categories. You can edit and publish posts, entitled to a preview page, and moderate comments. It is the application that now use to advance my sketches when I get the chance. With the bluetooth keyboard, I am comfortable to type long texts and even whole posts.
Before installing the application itself, you need to install Python, a prerequisite for running the program. But you should pay attention and install the correct file as there are several versions for the various versions of Symbian S60. Check which is compatible with your device.
The preview page is very interesting, but the editing bothers me a little. It is hard to see that letter tiny, white screen with a green source. I would like at least that one could choose a black background, less tiring viewing, and have the option of using other sources of sizes. It is a suggestion to the developer!
