Post your blog article through mobile blog writer apps

My favourite book shop is MPH Mid Valley. There're a lot of latest IT books at reasonable price. Travelling to Mid Valley by car is a horrible experience since I have to face a stream of cars moving bumper to bumper along the Federal Highway. Parking is also hard to find plus the expensive fee.

Train is the cheaper alternative of transportation, although I found it very crampy especially in the peak hours and weekend. The train schedule is always unreliable and it's a boring journey if you forgot to bring reading materials. Luckily, now I have my smartphone equipped with blog writer apps.

The two major blog hosting providers, blogger.com and wordpress.com, have published official apps for their mobile blog writer respectively. For Android platform, both apps are available for free at the Android Market. However I cannot download Blogger apps from my phone. Android Market said “the item cannot be installed on your device's country”. My location is in Malaysia, and I'm using Maxis network. I had to download Blogger app from outside Android Market (just type “download blogger .apk” in Google search, you’re responsible for the risk ) .

Blogger.com (app’s page)
WordPress (app’s page)

From my observations after trying both apps, I found out that Wordpress has the better apps in terms of editing your post and managing your blog. You could moderate comments, and edit the existing post, while Blogger could do both. I also having some difficulties placing the cursor to the desired place. I'm not sure whether the problem is in the apps or Android. Unfortunately the Wordpress apps cannot manage blogs hosted in Blogger.com. Be carefully of the location detection feature. You might not want to expose your location.

Anyway, I still prefer the Microsoft Live Writer, it's easier to do keyword optimization and very good in handling code samples.

*There're studies saying that blogging is a less popular activity among the Internet users. Why is that so? Social networking and microblogging is over shadowing blogging because they required a very small amount of words. Blogging is draining a vast amount of your time and thoughts. I believe it's a very good exercise for my brain. Considering the fact that I need to publish more academic papers in the near future. So, need to write any where and any time.

Have fun mobile blogging…

Filter setting in new AdMob panel

The new AdMob interface was launched last week (I was invited on early May 2014). The transition was smooth however from my experience I lost all my account balance in the old interface. One thing I do not like with the new apps is, it do not want to support PayPal payment. (Update – later I found out that the new AdMob facility provide direct wired-transfer to you favorite local banks. Just provide your account number and bank SWIFT-BIC and wait till your balance achieve the threshold value. This is normally a three day compared to two weeks PayPal transfer.You can change this in the Account > Payments > Payment Settings ) I have not figured out how to channel my commission payment to my local bank account. The thing I’d like to elaborate is the ads filtering panel. After you have logged-in to the new system (at https://apps.admob.com/ ), find the Account panel on the top-right of the page. Inside the Account panel, click on the Legacy AdMob data menu . Then choose the ...
