Double Posted

Arg - my site is syndicated on LiveJournal through a "feed" and gets picked up roughly once an our. This generally leaves me a window to throw a piece up, edit it, and have the edited, complete version be the one that gets aggregated.

Tonight, I got smited by the gods of fate, and my Mame piece went out to the Friends lists without pictures, with typos, and will now be double posted when the aggregator hits my site again. Grrr. I need to set up a "Staging" site where I test out articles before they go live.

Have you checked out w.bloggar? Depending on the engine you have running on your site, and if it supports the metablog api, you can post via the little winform client (unsure if they have a linux version as well), and it's got spell checking and preview built in.

Writebacks have been temporarily diabled due to comment spam. I'll try to get it figured out in the next month or so, but for now, you can comment on recent articles on my syndicated livejournal account
