Bilbo / Blogilo: Best Blogging Applications for Linux

Tampilan Bilbo/Blogilo
For those of you who have used Windows Live Writer (WLW), certainly you know how good a blog editing applications in Windows. Although its features are plentiful, but the application can be obtained free of charge. In addition, WLW also not overload the system, so it is suitable for use as an offline blog editing applications on netbooks.
I've been looking for the equivalent of WLW-based system Linux. Since the year 2007, I've tried GnomeBlog, BloGTK, and Drivel on Ubuntu, but none of the blog editing applications that satisfy me. Generally Gnome-based applications that have not developed anymore so it does not support the various features and blog platforms that exist today.
I try to search KDE-based blog editor application. As a result, I found an application called Bilbo (now known as Blogilo). What are its features?

According to his official site , here are some features Bilbo / Blogilo in general:
  • Based and WYSIWYG HTML Editing
  • Preview with the theme of which is owned blog
  •  Supports Blogger 1.0, MetaWeblog, MovableType (WordPress), and Google's GData API (Blogger.com)
  • Preparation of draft posts and post schedule (Scheduled)
  • Upload media file (only the MetaWeblog and MovableType)
  • Storage locally for editing posts without an internet connection (offline)
  • Automatic saving with certain intervals to avoid losing data in case things do not want
  • Internal Checking spelling (spellchecker) internal
In my opinion, Bilbo / Blogilo features a very full (perhaps even more complete than WLW). To be sure, I am very satisfied with the features owned by Bilbo / Blogilo and not burden the server. In addition, it seems that the application is also still actively developed, so maybe its features will be added in the future. Yes, I have no doubt refer to it as one of the best applications found on Linux and the best for a blog editor application category. Salute to the developers Bilbo / Blogilo!
