Well, I was really hoping you guys would take your time before releasing this as a final (and commercial) version and thus not only fix the numerous errors and glitches but also add some general basic features...!?
Even not considering that you are not doing yourselves a favour with the weird GUI (which, I know, you think is supposed to increase the user experience) in this current state it is just not worth the price...! Which is sad, because it would have been nice to have a fresh new app of this kind around...but unfortunately Blogo is not it...!
People still have problems logging into their accounts, account names are not showing up in the Ping section of prefs, international characters are messed up in the preview which itself is useless because it doesn't actually show what the post would look like in the browser, and unpredictable crashes are just a few of the problems we encountered here in the short period of testing...!
Then there's the lack of features like formatting text as a list, as blockquotes or that you cannot change the alignment of text at all, you cannot save your work locally, insert a 'more' tag or any kind of code...and all that is just the tip of the iceberg...
Too bad, as it seems that there's a capable, creative team behind this...but in its current state this app is close to being useless and definitely not worth the price, especially not in comparison to powerful competition like ecto for instance...

Actually, by now, I think they don't really care anyway...Monday, December 10 2007 @ 07:44 AM PST

Apropos GUI, their screenshots are only useful for people with big screens, not little ones on iBooks or MacBooks. Different thing, I know, but it points to some weaknesses in their ability to consider how other people might see their product.Reply to This
