And you're right - I didn't grok the convention of skipping p and br. Could you explain what you mean? I'm adding WYSIWYG support currently. The product is only 2 months old, and it will get better. I love Performancing but I wasn't impressed by Flock. What would you need in Bleezer that would make it more useful for you? I wrote Bleezer.

What WordPress does is convert carriage returns to br tags, and empty lines (double return) marks a paragraph. In the same way that this comment is converted into a couple of paragraphs just by hitting return a couple of times. Bleezer wasn't doing that in the preview. It's not fatal, but is a cosmetic oddity. Larry, it’s a pretty nice app – and I’ll be keeping an eye on it.

And Larry, for two months work this is excellent progress. Keep going and I look forward to the wysiwig version. Would be good if this hooks up to rss aggregators like Blogbridge.

The comment I hear most frequently is "no frills but it does a nice job". I'm ok with that for now, but it will get better. I'm looking at connecting to aggregators as well as a bookmarklet in a future version. Thanks Nick. The comment I hear most frequently is “no frills but it does a nice job”.

It lags behind in some areas (mostly the fit and finish, but for a 2-month-old app, that's totally understandable :-) ), and ahead in others (cross-platform, simple), and about the same in others (no WYSIWYG). Addition of bookmarklet support would be cool, as well as being triggerable by other apps (including aggregators as the preferred 'blog client' app). Other than that, the ability to select multiple categories for a post (and ideally to add a new category), as well as following the convert-newline-to-paragraph convention for previewing, and it's a pretty solid option!
