Going Mobile

Google's Iphone Blogger app leaves me wanting.  No Video upload or comment moderation.  It also balks at viewing videos and commenting.  It looks like it is going to work and just kicks you back to the post page.

Yummy Life TV compared the Blogger app to Blogspace

Blogspace only can access drafts saved locally on the BlogSpace app on your device. It can not access drafts saved on Blogspot. So you have to use both. Quite a pain!

While I a still trying to decide what my options are to merge my Google+ account, Blogger and You tube, I have used the my IPhone to up load a video to YouTube. Then on the PC make a blog and import the video http://jeffohara.blogspot.com/2013/01/happy-new-year.html. Unlike photos, IPhone can't upload a video directly to Blogger yet. I hope they do it soon as I really want to upload video remotely. You can't even pull video off of YouTube on a mobile device!

So it is a 2 step process and only on the PC.

YouTube has 15 minute limit per video, but uploads seem to be unlimited.

Change your limit here, but I think it counts towards your allotted space then:

http://www.google.com/intl/en/mobile/+/ is where Google+ and Blogger sends you when you choose Instant Upload. but the "Not on Android ? Get Google" button does not seem to work. When I when to that page on the IPhone, it showed a bunch of apps, including G+, Blogger and YouTube. I had the first two, so I downloaded the YouTube app and no option there either. I even checked back on the G+ app and pictures yes no sign of video.
