I've just downloaded and installed w.bloggar to use for my blog posts. Its a really great little desktop client to allow you to post to a multitude of blog servers, and you get all the benefit of a nice windows front-end :) If you're looking for something like this, check it out:: http://www.wbloggar.com/
Its now really easy to setup with .Text based blog servers. All you need to do is choose ".text" as your blog tool, and fill in the "path" property to point to the metablogapi.aspx page, like this --> //services/metablogapi.aspx
