Run your business from anywhere
As mentioned on my Twitter
account earlier, I am testing blogpresslite today. So far seems fine. There was lots of whining in the apps reviews about having to use Picassa with it.
First - that is true. Not the fault of the app developer it doesn't seem. Looks like Google wants it that way. Second - so what? If you've got any kind of Google account you can add Picasa with zero effort. Third - some photographer was whining about his website and not wanting to use Picasa as it would dilute his site presentation. Sorry dude - a) you don't have to share your photos at all from Picasa - google now stores blogger photos there and they can be locked and b) why not use Picasa to get yourself another point of presence, drive some traffic to your main site and even sell a print or two right from Picasa? Instead the guy bailed on this app and Picasa and a marketing oppty - probably uses only film too.
In sum, the free version works fine - I need to post a review to counter the whiners and maybe check out the paid version
