We all know that blogger.com has updated their website. The older was very good and Opera mini friendly, so many people like me used to blog via Mobile. But now the story is totally changed. New version has highly flash and java script enabled content. When we open it on Opera mini, it looks like a paper is crumbled and only 20% is view able. The only reason why i paused blogging is the updated version of blogspot. But people like me can still manage to post via mobile through several methods. I somehow managed to find some methods to post through mobile.


Let me share the different methods to post on blog by using your mobile phone.

Operamini 7 and Operamini 4.4 Methods

Operamini is the most popular browser for mobiles. Let me share you simple tricks to use Operamini for blogging.
1. Open blogger.com and log in to your account.
2. If you cannot view properly then open settings of Operamini by pressing #+8. Turn on single column view. (in opera mini 4.4 its called Mobile View).
3. Go to the folling link to post a new article. http://www.blogger.com/blog-this.g
4. Here you can post to your blog. Simply give title of your post, write article in textarea and publish.

The only problem with this method is that you cannot Label your post. But you should keep posting by this method and whenever you get access to a computer you can Lable all posts togather.

Operamini 12 s60v3

I really dont use this browser but the best thing about this browser is that it supports flash websites. You can view *.gif images and flash content in it. You may also be able to blog by it although i didn't test it yet.
The bad thing about Operamini 12 is that its RAM eater. It can suck you RAM when you open large web page. It may lead your phone to go hanged. If your smart phone RAM is less then 64MB then don't use it.

Blogger Applications (not for Symbian)

Google has launched its offical blogger Andriod application. I dont know why Nokia doesn't launch any blogger application. I am afraid everybody is soon gonna kick Symbian phones.

Android Blogger Applications

1. Blogger
2. Blogger-droid
3. Bloggerroid

Before You Go

If you post images in your article by using any image host. Then these images may not be shown in Mobile view of Blogger thumbnails. To avoid this go to google image search and search images by using the following trick. Type this text in search bar.
site:blogspot.com Your keyword here
Replace the underlined text by your keyword. Now google will show only those images which are hosted on blogspot blog. You can use these images to avoid that thumbnail bug i mentioned above.
