Thingamablog is a cross-platform, standalone weblogging application that makes authoring and publishing your weblogs almost effortless.
Since you’re reading this, you probably have some idea what a "Weblog" is. Or perhaps you’ve just discovered the concept of "blogging" and wondered what all the buzz is about. In any case, a weblog is typically defined as a…
"… hierarchy of text, images, media objects and data, arranged chronologically, that can be viewed in an HTML browser… The center of the hierarchy, in some sense, is a sequence of weblog ‘posts’ … that forms the index of the weblog, that link to all the content in sequence."

Thingamablog attempts to make the process of creating and managing a weblog easy enough for the non-techy, yet robust enough for most users’ needs. The majority of weblogging solutions rely on ad-laden third-party services, or complicated server-side scripts. However, the only requirement to setup and manage a, professional looking, flexible weblog with Thingamablog is FTP access to your web server.
