One of the great things with working with blogging software is the ability to cross post. Tonight I sat down with my existing blog for about an hour and figured out how to configure that blog to cross post onto my new Blogs.Interknowlogy.com site. Aside from the dearth of documentation it was actually a relatively simple procedure. I use Das Blog on my other site while InterKnowlogy has decided to use .Text (for it's multiple blogger support). Once I found the API hidden under the Services/metablogapi.aspx interface the pieces fell into place rather quickly. In particular the Das Blog feature which allows you to autofill the majority of the information makes life easier as it dug up the services/metablogapi.aspx endpoint for me once I realized what it would autopopulate.
In this way instead of cutting and pasteing content or ignore one site in preference to another I can place content in both places at once. The really nice feature is that Das Blog allows me to choose which posts I send across the wire to InterKnowlogy and doesn't just blindly send everything I choose to blog on here on NerdNotes.Net. Now I just have to repost a couple of my early blogs.interknowlogy posts so I can have them all in a single location.
Quick followup, the cross post feature also supports remote editing and deletion of the posts so I can even correct my rather common mistakes in grammar and spelling.
