I write blog posts in my mail client (Thunderbird) and send them via SMTP to my blog provider (blogger.com), which posts them to my blog. With this setup, you could use your mail client's support for offline message composition to write blog posts while disconnected.

Posted by Jeff Walden at January 20, 2006 7:30 PMI believe the tool you're looking for is call a "text editor" (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_editor for a more complete description). Their functionality has not been affected by the propogation of online web tools. I personally prefer vim, but am told that many others also exist.
:P

Posted by BlueMM at January 22, 2006 3:46 PMHm, I'm surprised no one's pointed out that WordPress supports the Blogger, MetaWeblog, and Movable Type APIs (XML-RPC). They all provide getting and posting entries. There are clients available for all platforms.
