There is so much potential for the iPhone to be a totally mobile blogging tool, but, unfortunately, it fails.
The main issue as I see it is transferring content between apps. To blog successfully you need the content you create to be flexible. None of the iPhone features are intergrated enough to allow this. If you create content with Notes, Mail or even the Wordpress app you can’t share, combine or transfer this material. It is locked into the application. And if you want to blog about another site, you have to hand type the whole url into the blog post.
Cut and paste would go a long way to sovlving this, but so would an RSS reader that allows one to ‘publish to blog’. NewsGator fails in this respect and one can only hope that David Watanabe’s Newsfire for iPhone will fix this.
