Posting Via Metaweblog API
Title:
Posting Via Metaweblog API
Area:
External Services
Summary:
Dreamwidth does not currently support the MetaWeblog API. If it did, users could easily post to DW using external services, such as Delicious and Posterous.
Description:
The Blog Posting function of Delicious is not compatible with DW (or with LJ, for that matter) and thus users wishing to post digests of their Delicious links must use an external script to be able to post digests to their Dreamwidth journals.
It seems (from what I have learned in conversations with people better versed in these issues than me) that if the MetaWeblog API were implemented on Dreamwidth, people wouldn't have to use such scripts anymore.
This suggestion:
Should be implemented as-is.
35 (66.0%)
Should be implemented with changes. (please comment)

(And I'd like to be able to tag anything coming in through it so them who don't want to see it can set themselves up a Default filter to exclude it.)
