Requirement : Linux, google command line utility "googlecl".

Example Output
==============

http://splash-of-open-sauce.blogspot.com/

Usage
=====

M-x customize-group <enter> org-googlecl <enter>

(org-googlecl-blog) ; posts current org item to blogger/blogspot.
(googlecl-blog) ; more general function.

The most straightforward usage is to set up a hot key to call

    (googlecl-prompt-blog)

This will detect if you are in org and if so ask you if you wish to blog the entire org
item - if you say "no" it will provide a normal text blog using (googlecl-blog).

This might be done like this:-

(global-set-key (kbd "C-c L") 'org-googlecl-list-blogs)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c B") 'googlecl-prompt-blog)

Requirements
============
emacs, org-mode.
The command line google utility found here http://code.google.com/p/googlecl/ .
NOTE : you must set up the Blog authorisation from the command line before using these functions. 

Thie command line tool is for Linux. I have no idea about Mac/Windows equivalents.

The easiest way to to this is to "google blogger list" from the command line. If you have not configured
google with the config file use the --blog option to specify which blog. 

google --help

for more details.

Coming Up
=========
Ability to list blogs based on title contents (done) and then jump to asociated org item if it exists.
Delete blogs from the blog list.
assign a UID to the blog and org item for instant match ups.
Might be nice to allow config of a user defined function for defining labels so can have content aware tagging for reposts etc. Possibly even linking to a github commit node.

Known Issues
============

I have a sneaky suspicion using the googlecl tool is fundamentally
flawed. Probably better to use the google APIs directly.

There are numerous issues with trying to reblog from the output of org-googlecl-list-blogs.
Probably linked to untrimmed subjects. Nothing so devastating.
