You can use the Blogger API to post to your Blogger account. There's a Python interface to the API -- PyBlogger -- available here: http://beetle.cbtlsl.com/archives/category/pyblogger You could also use a free service like LiveJournal (http://www.livejournal.com/). There are several clients available to post to LJ. I don't know if a Python wrapper to post is available or not. IAC, it'd be a few lines of code to make the XML-RPC calls. The protocol docs are available here: http://www.livejournal.com/doc/server/ljp.csp.protocol.html HTH > * I do have my own hosted website, which can use perl but not python; > but I'd rather use a freebie blog site > * the whole thing must be scriptable, because it will run daily.
