Bloggin on the iPad.

The iPad app is much different than the web. I like the web better because it is easier to use. The app is a little harder to use than the web because the way it is set up. The app is easier to add a picture to a blog post. I think they are both user friendly. But I haven used the app to its full ability, but the little I used it I didn't like it as much as the web. The picture is of the app version.
