Blogging Software To Store Ideas For Future Blog Articles

As a blogger you sometimes come upon an idea or website that you find interesting but do not want to write about right at that moment. Maybe you have already posted your daily quota on your blog or you want to wait until the time is right for that blog post. That leads to a slight problem for the blogger as the information somehow need to be recorded so that the website, product or idea does not get lost.

Remembering might work for a few ideas or someone with a photographic memory but most bloggers need to write down their ideas and findings somehow. Some simply bookmark the pages but that leaves the ideas behind because they obviously cannot be bookmarked.

Others use a text editor to post the ideas and websites. That’s an option but not a very sophisticated one. Last but not least there are note taking applications online and for the computer desktop.

BlogIdeas probably falls into the latter category although it has been designed to provide bloggers with a blogging software to store their blogging ideas.

The multi-lingual program (German and English) stores ideas that are added by the user. Each idea consists of a category, title, sources and text. They are added to the main interface after creation from where they can be accessed individually.

There is also a random button that supposedly picks one of the ideas randomly so that the blogger does not have to select one.

Ideas that are listed in the main interface can be edited directly in there which is great for adding new content or revising old.

BlogIdeas is an interesting blogging tool. It could use some further development so that for instance additional elements like photos or videos can be added to the ideas. And integration with popular blogging software scripts would also be very nice to directly move the idea and information to the content there. But that’s also possible manually right now by simply copying and pasting the contents.

BlogIdeas can be downloaded from the developer’s website over at Stevie’s Website. The program displays a language selection screen on first startup. It should run on most Windows operating systems providing that the Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 is installed.
