David Chartier of Ars Technica recently posted a great “mini-review” of the new iPhone blogging client iBlogger. While some clients work directly with a specific service, like WordPress, iBlogger joins a budding group that can speak a variety of blog platform languages. This iPhone blogging client also happens to be a descendant of a long-time Mac desktop client, ecto.

Chartier suggests that as a multi-platform blogging tool, iBlogger is an easy candidate for the jack-of-all-blogs award. It offers direct support for 11 platforms, including (alphabetically) Blogger, Blojsom, drupal, ExpressionEngine, LifeType, LivingDot, My.Opera, SquareSpace, TypePad, WordPress, and Xanga, as well as support for other platforms that support either the MetaWeblogs or MovableType APIs. For the review, Ars Technica tested the app on a WordPress 2.6 blog.

After constructing an extensive list of iBlogger’s pros and cons, Chartier asserts that the app is a solid 1.0 client that, for $9.99, supports a broad range of platforms, including some we haven’t seen in competing products. With a little more UI polish and these deeper hooks for bloggers who need to speak multiple languages, iBlogger will be a very appealing option for iPhone bloggers who need everything, including the kitchen sink.
