I'm curious about how many of you are blogging with an iPad. I got one last year and have been trying to decide if I can switch from my laptop to the iPad to do my blogging. What app works best? Is the picture quality as good? It's so hard for some of us older baby boomers (well I'll only speak for myself as some of you are amazing) to get up to speed with all the new technology and learn a new way. While taking pictures with the iPad is easy, is the resolution as good? And lastly, what about signing up for Google friend? So many questions, so few answers. All opinions are welcome.
I'm still hand quilting, hope to be done with this part soon.
Happy stitching,
Karen

I have not figured that out yet! I can barely post from my phone. I would love to blog from my ipad too. I hope someone shares the magic trick!
I haven't found an app that works as well for me as Windows Live Writer does. I don't have an expensive, high quality camera (just a small reasonably decent quality camera), but the picture quality on the iPad compares well enough with my camera. The iPad does a better job under some conditions and the camera does better in others. The only thing I'll caution you is to be judicious in using the zoom on your iPad. That really has a negative impact on picture quality.
I don't know about the Ipad, but Google Friend is very proprietary. It makes it difficult to comment on a blog without joining ourselves.
I haven't tried blogging from my ipad-sorry no help there. But I use it all the time now for Instagram and also find it takes good pics and I download them easily to the PC for blogging. They seem to be just as good quality - if not better than my camera.
I get very frustrated trying to blog from my iPad. The apps for iPad blogging aren't that great, more like something to use in a pinch, not on a daily basis. I don't care for typing on the iPad, either. Dear Hubby bought a wireless iPad keyboard several years ago, but neither of us like it as well as a "real" keyboard. The iPad camera is convenient, and I find the pictures are generally comparable to the point & shoot camera I use for blogging. In summary, even though it's more time consuming to take pictures with a camera and upload them for blogging, I'd rather use my laptop to blog and save the iPad for blog reading!
I've used my iPad for blogging for a few years, but I'm not a very good blogger. Haha. I do only the very simplest things and don't understand most of what I'm doing! I use "Blogger" and it works okay. I never use the computer anymore unless I absolutely have to.
I don't own an ipad....I just use my laptop..way too complicated for me to even think about--I'm still battling with my vacuum..lol hugs, Julierose
I don't have an iPad either and mostly use my desktop for blogging or laptop if we're traveling. As for Google+ I think I have it, but don't know anything about it. I must be a duffus!
I am really new to all of this myself. I use my Iphone to take photos, then I email the photos to myself to the laptop computer. All my blog posts have been posted on the laptop computer. I really like the way most of them look!
I really do believe that Instagram is the quickest on your phone.
I do not own an Ipad, however, I would love to have one!
Check out the photos on my blog, I would love a review!
