5 tips for using Blogger on your Android phone

5 tips for using Blogger on your Android phone: "Earlier this month, we announced the first version of the Blogger app for Android on the Blogger Buzz blog. Today, we’d like to share some tips on how you can use the Blogger app to quickly publish posts when you’re on the go.

1. Attach photos as you compose

Take photos using your phone’s camera and instantly add them to your post while you draft. You can also insert photos from your phone’s gallery, all within the Blogger app.

2. Include your current location
With your phone’s GPS, you can let your readers know where you’re blogging from by selecting your current location, no additional typing needed.

3. Share to Blogger
Share videos, products, photos, links and other interesting things you would like to include in your blog via the share button that’s available in many apps, including Google Maps for mobile, YouTube, and your web browser. After you share an item to your Blogger, it will be inserted into new post that’s automatically created for you so that start can composing right away.

4. Switch across multiple Blogger accounts
If you’re an author of more than one blog, you can easily switch between your different accounts by tapping on the orange arrow next to the title of your blog. That way, you can publish articles for each of your blogs to keep your all of your readers up to date.

5. Keep track of published posts and saved drafts
See what you’ve composed in an easy to read list by tapping the list icon located on the top right-hand corner.

We hope that you enjoyed these blogging tips. If you haven’t done so already, you can download the free Blogger app for Android 2.1+ devices from Android Market or scan the QR code below.

Nokia/Microsoft working relationship

This was rumored for a week or more, but I like many, probably, hoped Nokia would choose anone but MS... they both believe that MS Windows Phone software will complement Nokia's quality hardware. However, I think its going to take a long time before that starts to produce any results.

They should have started working on a high-end Android series instead of or as well as Meego, which anyone who tried it - I did -  could see what a dog it was, and its not improved in a year of Intel and Nokia working on it...

Right now, MWC Barcelona is in progress, and Android is absolutely EVERYWHERE.

HTC have just anounced their Flyer tablet, and it looks damn nice, as do a myriad of others.

Apple media are trying to reduce the Android glow by rumors of iPad 3 and Nano iPhones, but this is clearly Apple leaked... bastards!
