Hello Russell,
Channel 9 uses the metaweblog API, did you post using Windows Live Writer? If not, why not
Live Writer is a great time saver indeed.
But there are some problems. Like extra spaces between paragraphs when you post on blogspot sites, while it posts fine on live spaces.
I'll have to add this to my list of things to do! Thanks for the idea on using this to post to channel 9. russ
