This site is here to keep track of how to interoperate with a number of 'blogging and CMS tools.  Quite a few of them support various XML-RPC based APIs like the Blogger or metaWeblog API, and many store their data in text form alongside the posts, but which uses which method?  And how do you export your posts from one to another?  Find out here.

Radio UserLand, by UserLand Software (the people who brought you Scripting News, Manila and XML-RPC), is a desktop web application - a web server on your desktop that uses your web browser as its interface.  It supports the Blogger and Meta-Weblog API over XML-RPC and uses lots of XML internally.
