    The program is no longer updated since 2009.

    Thingamablog is a cross-platform, standalone blogging application that makes authoring and publishing your weblogs almost effortless. Unlike most blogging solutions, Thingamablog does NOT require a third-party blogging host, a cgi/php enabled web host, or a MySQL database. In fact, all you need to setup, and manage, a blog with Thingamablog is FTP, SFTP, or network access to a web server.

    Thingamablog was designed with ease of use in mind. Blogging applications should be easy enough for the non-techy, yet robust enough for the needs of most users. Rather than spending time worrying about what services your webserver supports, or editing complicated server-side scripts, you can set up a fully functional weblog in minutes with Thingamablog.

    Thingamablog allows you to:
    * Set up a blog in minutes via an intuitive wizard
    * Maintain multiple blogs
    * Effortlessly manage thousands of entries
    * Dynamically update blog content
    * Write entries offline (Dialup users)
    * Publish your blog with a single click
    * Publish remotely to your blog via email
    * Read news with an integrated feed reader
    * Make posts from your favorite feeds
    * Create a unique layout with customizable templates
    * Import entries from RSS/Atom feeds
    * Set up flexible archiving options
    * Organize your entries by category or date
    * Save entries as drafts
    * Define your own custom template tags
    * Syndicate your blog via an RSS or Atom feed
    * Ping services like weblogs.com, BlogRolling, and Blo.gs
    * And much more...

    It isn't being updated but, the silly little thing does still work. It's the first flat CMS I ever used from my deskop PC, the only one I could find at that time. It's not flashy, or updated any more, but you can post with it.
