Simple Blogger client.
You can:
-create/view/edit/delete blog posts
-post comments to published blog posts
-upload picture(s) and video(s)
-select size and quality of pictures uploaded
-set publish date/time
-publish as draft
-share pictures, videos, YouTube clips, links etc.
This is a client for blogger.com (blogspot.com).
* The app uses ads from:
- Airpush
• Push Notification Ads
• Icon Ads
- AdMob
• Banner Ads
* All published entries will have a Blogger-droid signature
* The app is using Flurry for basic metrics
[*******Important Note*******]
Blogger-droid will show two Notification Ads every day in your notification bar and install Icon Ads from AirPush. This is to support the development for this app. If you really don't like AirPush you can opt-out.(https://market.android.com/details?id=com.airpush.optout).
Do not download if you do not want Airpush - save the one-star reviews and unhelpful comments.
There is a paid version of Blogger-droid that doesn't use ads at all, you can always buy the ad-free version if you like the app but hate the ads... (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=and.blogger.paid)

FAQ
---
Q: I keep getting a CAPTCHA error?
A: The CAPTCHA handling in the app is a known bug, to get rid of the CAPTCHA requirement you need to use a browser
and log in at http://www.blogger.com and/or http://picasaweb.google.com and/or http://www.youtube.com (depending on which google service requiring CAPTCHA)
with the same credentials that you're using in Blogger-droid app.
Q: I get a 403 or 404 error when trying to publish blog posts with pictures?
A 1: To be able to post pictures, you must activate your account @ http://picasaweb.google.com, all pictures uploaded from Blogger-droid will end up in the default album 'Drop box'.
A 2: Your Google account may be full.
A 3: Your 'Drop box' album may be full. It seems like there is a limit of 1000 pictures in a album.
A 4: Make sure there is no unwanted spaces in your username, some keyboard software have a tendency to add a space at the end.
Q: I can't publish blog posts with pictures?
A: To be able to post pictures, you must activate your account @ http://picasaweb.google.com.
Q: I want to quickly switch blog to post to, how do I do that?
A: Click the title bar in the editor view.
Q: WTF? I get ads in my notification bar! What's up with that?
A: Airpush (www.airpush.com) is used by the application and they pushes ads to the notification bar once a day. If you don't like that, don't install the app. If you still want to use Blogger-droid, buy the Ad-free version that doesn't use ads at all and have some extra features.
