Grrr
WordPress just ate my post. Don’t you just love web apps? It’s going to be even better when (as people predict) *everything* will be “in the cloud”, so I can spend all day typing in a cramped input field in a browser window, and then be unable to access my data OR my programs when my internet connection acts up. >=(

Good offline solutions should always be available. One of the things that won me over to tumblr was this:

For big blog posts, use an app, like Mars Edit, that keeps the whole thing local, then uses a web interface to publish the story. If it fails, no prob, just retry it later, no lost posts!
Hopefully with offline apps and such with HTML5, this will be less of an issue as your browser can save posts in progress locally and then sync back to the webapp.
