My friend Bethany Soule, for whom I host a blog, recently asked me if there was a way to write entries using a client program instead of having to login to wordpress via the web interface. I pointed her to the xml-rpc page in wordpress I had run across recently, and then decided to check it out for myself. Since I am on Linux, I looked at the Linux clients, but also wanted to try out a cross-platform option. QTM fit this description, and also uses KDE libraries, which I like, since I normally use the KDE desktop. I am posting this post using QTM. It seems to work pretty well so far.
