Boring technical jibber jabber…

Regarding posting to Blogger via email. Blogger gives you a couple of methods. The easiest is using Blogger’s “change settings” button on your friendly blog dashboard. Within the settings, there is an e-mail tab with an option called “Mail-to-Blogger”. Here, you establish a secret e-mail address. With this option, you can only post text, but you can do it from any email address.

To post pictures, you have to use Blogger’s new go@blogger.com address. Its a couple of steps, but it does work. This is for posting from a phone. You send an e-mail with your picture to go@blogger.com. Blogger will create a temporary web page and send you back the address and a “claim” key via text message to your phone. Then, you must go to go.blogger.com and enter your claim key. They will then allow you to direct all future postings from your phone number to an existing blog. Whew!

There. You asked for it. 🙂
