http://radiosurl:5335/RPC2 Is the correct URL type for blogger api access. I just had to search google until I found documentation on the Mars editor site to find it. comment []  trackback []

Radio Userland. I owe a lot of thanks to Radio U and the community for helping me get through the brick wall of basic web understanding. I started looking for weblog software based on what software was being used by the people that I was interested in reading at the time. Radio Userland kept surfacing as useful and powerful - even with the lack of updates. At the beginning of my journey into weblogs, podcasts, website creation, etc I would not have been able to run my own version of wordpress and now that I have run it, i still user RU. Through RU I was able to start using HTML, OPML, and RSS. Today, a year and a half later, I know that feeds and subscriptions drive the web and I'm glad to have RU with me. Radio development team: Please don't be discouraged. The lifecycle of this software may be nearing it's but you can reinvent Radio and thus reproduce it. Take the core of the software, repackage it, write some better documentation, and add some competitive features that would make blogger.com guys or wordpress guys happy - like better third party compatibility. As it is today, when I use writely, flickr, or any number of application that have a blogging component there is no choice for Radio. There is a choice for something compatible and that's what could be a little more "in your face." I have had a third party blogging tool working with Radio before but it took a lot of experimenting and I don't remember it now - so I don't want to experiment again. Well, maybe I'll figure out the correct urls and post it. For posterity. Thanks again RU and don't force me to switch to wordpress! comment []  trackback []
