Internationalization

As Blogium 1.1 with photo publishing and huge set of refinements is in review by Apple and will be published in about a week, I continue working on even up-coming versions. Currently I'm working on 1.2 version. Some new features you can see on Blogium's official website on Version History page, there are some really neat things.

Main reason I'm posting now is that I've started to rewrite Blogium a little bit to make it localizable. I can't promise Blogium 1.2 to be in some other languages than English, but there will be Blogium 1.3 with German and Russian languages for sure. For other languages I'll need your help.

If you are interested translating Blogium into your native language please contact me via this e-mail and I'll discuss everything else with you personally.

Other Blogspot Clients

Today I've investigated other Blogspot/Blogger clients on App Store. I wish Blogium 1.1 to be approved ASAP, because it will be best client availible today. I'm very excited by this new version which I already use now. Blogium 1.1 will be availible in 10 to 12 days as a free update for current Blogium users.

I'm not going to stop here tho, I really want to implement video publishing for iPhone 3G S.
