HIRE ME!

They both worked!

I really should have edited the reply to Phlip J. Beyer, but the whole history is there in case you're interested.

I added my other email address to the list of bloggers, although it worked anyway "in the beforetime" when digg blogging was broken and I was posting pretty much exclusively by email.

Now the digg blog and both email blogs worked last time.

If this works, I can even tell you about it.

Re: Is there a fix to get Digg "Blog This" to work with new Blogger?

Unqualified Yippee! I just hope my "Post by email" is intact -- the last one
didn't seem to go through. Maybe I have to do something to fix
authentication that was affected.

This probably won't become a blog entry.

I'm writing my message here and saving the file.

This is posted out of an application that I wrote using Bruce Wampler's "V" GUI generation system. It's a simple app that uses a default configuration file to find its customizable configuration file and determines the directories that it will use for its temporary files and then creates an email message file suitable for use with Outlook Express (or just about anything, in principle).

It queries for email addresses (which is also supposed to be configurable, but I haven't seen those modules in a long time) in a window with form fields, the last of which is the subject of the message.

Finally it offers an editor window (also configurable, I think) for which I have chosen MS Notepad because I wrote the program to queue up a bunch of quick little text notes to people while I was offline, so that when I used the dialup, I could just submit the series of files I had created without the disturbance of a network connection.

That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it . . .

The problems that started on Digg when I converted my Blogger account to a Google account are fixed. You can now blog straight from Digg using an "Old" Blogger or a "New" Blogger account. Seems like it was a bit of a tough fix. The path has to send you over to Google to authorize the connection before you can setup the account. Anyway, nice work.As referenced in the prior post, All Things Phil - Blog (new blogger entry) was most helpful in knowing what to expect upon returning to put in the new settings.

Yipee! Finally Fixed! Digg.com wont accept my login information for my newly updated Blogger Beta account with the new Google Gmail account and there is no work around as of yet. Anyone else having problems like this? Please digg this if you think you could even have that problem so we can find a quick fix. Thanks See also:
