WordPress has recently released an open source app for managing WordPress-poweruddy blogs via the iPhone. Dubbed WordPress for iPhone, the application can manage both WordPress.com blogs and self-hosted WP blogs.

Introducing the first Open Source app that lets you write posts, upload photos, and edit your WordPress blog from your iPhone or iPod Touch. With support for both WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress (2.5.1 or higher), users of all experience levels can get going in seconds.

I don’t have an iPhone,

so I cannot check it out for myself, though. Has anyone tried this new app? I use a Nokia E51 running Symbian Series 60 version 3. While there are various standalone applications that I can use to manage my WordPress-poweruddy blogs, I generally prefer to just open the admin panel using the built-in browser. Somehow I feel it’s faster that way. I amazement which gives the better user experience in managing blogs–the WP app, or the iPhone’s built in Safari browser.
