Cool,

I was wondering if anyone read this list :)

I tried w.blogger and blogBuddy. They both want to getUserblogs before 
they do anything else.
I was considering just stubbing in a hard-coded result since, it appears 
blogID is not used by syncato at all anyways.

Did you get any clients working with the metaweblog API? (i'll try any 
clients if you had success with)

As 'rough' as syncato is, it seems like it's usable enough for someone 
willing to work around the rough edges, so i may
be your first user :)  (unless you think there's a reason not too)

I think syncato would make a great (private) personal journal. I tried 
using pyblosxom for that but you couldn't
add any meaningful markup and what i really dig about syncato, is I can 
add whatever markup I want and mine for
it down the line using XPath.

Cheers,
Darryl
