I'm serious about not liking RapidWeaver.

My first blogging app was iBlog. I stopped using it around version 1.4 or so, when iWeb for the Mac came out as part of Apple's iLife suite. iBlog itself was fine, but the company, Lifli, was flaky. Supposedly iBlog exists in version 5 now, but the company website seems defunct, so I'd not risk using it.

I think Apple's iWeb was the perfect WYSIWYG blogging application, but its main weakness was that it got bogged down when the number of blog entries grew. Then it got discontinued in version 3 when Apple moved from MobileMe to iCloud. Luckily, I was able to save my iWeb MobileMe sites here.

When I finally gave up on iWeb, I switched to Sandvox, which was a fine WYSIWYG replacement, but it, too, was dropped by its company (Karelia). Karelia itself disappeared.

So now I'm on Rapidweaver. My big problem with RapidWeaver is it's not a true WYSIWYG editor. Instead. I have to use its separate, built-in simulation feature to see what my pages look like.

For something that's in version 8, that's just stupid.

I tried WordPress on this hosting service, and then I tried using MarsEdit to edit the WordPress pages. However, even MarsEdit isn't true WYSIWYG, which is still pretty stupid for something in version 4.

Also, the WordPress hosting on inMotion (my hosting service) is pretty slow. Don't know why.
