A way to post to blogger without using blogger?

In other words, posting automatically.

Let's say my computer does something. When my computer does this thing, I want it to send a "post" to my blog. Anyone know how I can make it post to my blog without having to post manually?

TIA

Have you looked at some sort of service that would run on your machine to do this? I don't know of any, but it should be possible to do in VB.

if you know a bit of Perl, this is easy - search for LWP module. Certaintly doable in most other languages too.

Thanks for the replies. Still looking into it but the info helps. I found that one alternative is to post to a blog via email -- and the program I'm using can send email so that might work.

lol - check out the macro mice/pointer movers. You can find programs that will drive other programs without too much trouble. The only difficulty is getting macros setup right. It takes time and patience.

Blogger has an xml-rpc interface.

There are xml-rpc implimentatins for php, asp, perl etc, so you can use these to post to blogger.

Two links :
[xml-rpc.com...] and [wbloggar.com...] ( a desktop client that uses xml-rpc to post to blogger ).
