I’ve been looking at ways to make it easier for me to post here more regularly.  Between projects, work, life, etc… I don’t post as often as I should.  So I’m currently trying out the Firefox Add-in ScribeFire.  Scribefire is a “blogging client” that allows you to write a post offline, and it automagically posts it to your blog.  However, since Nucleus isn’t the most popular of blogging platforms, there are some quirks to installation.  First of all, ScribeFire has an excellent auto-detect feature.  You simply enter the URL of your blog, and it generally detects whatever settings it needs.  It doesn’t detect Nucleus, however.  For Nucleus, you have to “Configure Manually”, choose metaWeblog API from the drop down menu, and use
http://yoursite.com/blogdir/nucleus/xmlrpc/server.php
as your API URL.  Voila, it works.  This posting is the result of my first use of ScribeFire, so we’ll see what happens.
