Cool. But I can't find the community stats or the post by e-mail feature. Do you have pointer?
Community stats will be live at weblog.info soon (thanks to Mr. Fausett's generosity, we've got a cool URL for it) - we're compiling the stats now, just not publishing them - the feature list could be more specific on this point...
You can access post via mail from your console under "Settings" - this will let you set up a shortcut to post to specific categories via mail. I was using it the other night with an SMS to Mail gateway. Posting from my Nokia 8890 was tres cool.
I tried to post from my Blackberry. The e-mail went through, and I received the confirmation message. When I tried to use the Blackberry browser to click though to the link though, I received a 406 Error (The page you are trying to load is not supported by the broswer). Simply replying to the message worked though. Cool. Now I'll be able to blog the WLS Preliminary Injunction hearing on October 6th live from the courtroom! ;-)
You can turn off the require confirmation flag and eliminate that entire step. Its more for security freaks than anything else. Personally, I think it would be pretty funny if some address book virus sent 500 "I Love You" messages to my blog ;)
