Blogging through Jabber

The most recent incarnation of my lil' Jabber bot sybot is now able to blog, if we tell him so (by typing "bot: blog this") - thanks to Blogger's recently published XML-RPC interface (the [create Blogger API]). It does so by using RXR, which makes posting to Blogger pretty, uhm, trivial. Simple Web Services rule.

The result: http://jabbered.blogspot.com

The Jabber conference: lcom@conference.jab.overloader.at, jab.overloader.at

Source: jabber-lib.r, sybot.r, RXR

That's what the call to Blogger's XML-RPC API looks like in REBOL:

blogger-xr: make xmlrpc-server [host: "plant.blogger.com" port: 80 uri: "/api/RPC2"]xmlrpc-call blogger-xr "blogger.newPost" [        "yourAppKey" "3110358"         "username" "password" "message" true        ]
