Entry: More about TK3 Monday, April 05, 2004



I have the luck to be working on a PowerBook G4 with OS X 2+. That means that when I ran across a freeware app called MyJournal today, I immediately downloaded it. Why? Because it saves text as .rtf, making it perfect for creating text media resources for import into TK3. All objects can be saved into a journal, collecting them for eventual use in a book. I believe that it also will upload directly to a blog, which is what I am about to try. Hold on....

Alas! It uploads to Blogger but not to Blogdrive. So what I have to do is to type the text here and then open the Blogdrive Mini-MEditor and paste it in. Bingo!


By the way, there are tons of uses of MyJournal, which is why it has been bundled on the Maine iBooks. I will be exploring its integration with other apps and keeping this blog appraised of them. Another salute to Apple...


Another problem - the Mini-MEditor is not working - is not accepting any text. Which means I will save this and repost it later. Hmm...

Got it! The editor works in IE but not in Safari. Now we are in business. All I need to do is figure how to upload directly to Blogdrive.

By the way, I also learned that Phlog's rss.xml feed is somehow not valid. I'll send it to the friendly validator and see what I can learn.


Never use dashes in a blog post!!!

That is what was messing up the rss feed from phlog. What a great thing validator is! Here is the link: Feed Validator.


Just learned another thing: in IE, you can not paste a URL into the Blogdrive link wizard. It works in Safari. Oh well, life is all about trade offs...
