I'd have thought I was in a larger crowd, using my Mac to blog on Blogger.com. It took me quite a while to find an OS X client. Finally did, called Ecto. Note that you need to make one quick fix otherwise you'll pull your hair out over spacing issues. Log into Blogger.com. Go to Settings => Formatting and turn off Convert Line Breaks.
Thanks to this forum post for the hint.
Note--I gave a good run at the vim-blogger integration, but couldn't get it running. If anyone does, I'd still love a vim-based solution.
In the meantime, I'm a happy Ecto customer. Much better than trying to manage posts always online and always by the web.

Hey Jonathan,
Thanks for the tip! I'm giving it a spin right now I posted my latest blog post using ecto. It looks good so far :)
I'm thinking about attending Scotland on Rails in March. Will you be there?
Take care,
Johannes
Indeed--we're a sponsor. :-P
Hi Jonathan,
I was impressed to find out that you cover two areas that I am very interested in seeking advice/partnership: RORs and iPhone dev.
I am close to launching my first ROR SaaS app (http://scoutforce.com) and I hope to launch 3 to 4 more in the next year for the niche market of college coaches. We let go our only onshore developer recently and are discussing replacing him with another onshore partner/developer.
I am also in the process of pushing out a couple iPhone app ideas and looking to see what's out there in terms of partnerships and/or development cost estimates.
I would love to chat with you over the phone if you are interested at all. I am pretty free after 8pm EST any day of the week when the two little kiddos go to bed.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Phil--thanks for the comments. I'll send you a direct email.
Oh no! I just wanted to get my Scotland on Rails ticket, just to see that they're sold out already! What a bummer.
