Due to Blogger being a bit crap, I’ve been unable to automatically update the whole site to the new layout, so between times I’m going back and doing it manually. It’s a bit of a slog. One day I ought to go over to Movable Type or something, but there’ll have to be a reliable way to transfer all the archives.

There is a product — Zoundry — that’s designed as WYSIWYG editor for Blogger.
I’m not interested in the WYSIWYG function, but it downloads blog entries to your PC; effectively a back up function.
It’s also compatible with Moveable Type and other systems. So I thought this may be a route to emigrating from Blogger (although I’ve no plans to, I just wanted the option).
Problem is, they have no multiple blog publishing feature, so each entry needs to be published manually. A bit tedious.
Also, when I downloaded it, it had proplems connecting to the Blogger API and they admit that their ‘Synchronize with Host’ (effectively back-up) feature misses entries and so is unreliable.
I wonder if there are any rival products?
