Blogging and Golf: Equally Frustrating

FRUSTRATED. Me in a nut shell today because blogging feels like golf. And, it’s not the amazing “I just shot a hole -in-one” feeling. It’s the “7 strokes on a Par 4 with no good fairway shots and two balls in the water” feeling.

All I want to do is figure out how to create daily links from my del.icio.us account to tangled web.

I know it exists: youjustdon’tgetus and Micro Persuasion. Also, the del.icio.us badge is on Maggie Fox’s Social Media Group Page, but I’ll be damned if I can configure either application for my blog.

My major issue is that I can’t find the following information from my WordPress blog:

  • out_url is the full URL of the XML-RPC interface for your blog, which probably ends in something like mt-xmlrpc.cgi

WHERE DO I FIND THIS?

I will not be defeated – a hole-in-one is in my near future.

Stay tuned…or drop a line if you have insight on this one.

Wow… You actually *read* YJDGU? *8-)

Anyway… This should help: http://theory.isthereason.com/?p=499

If you ‘view source’ for your blog page, the XML-RPC address should be there in the code in a tag somewhere near the top… I’m on a mobile, so I can’t look myself for you… Can later if you don’t have any luck yourself.

Hi – your out_url should be http://tangledweb2008.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php

Hope that helps.
