When you first start Blurty you see a login window where you should enter
your username and password. The client remembers multiple users and passwords.
This is where you type your journal entries. Write whatever you want and
hit the "Post" button to publish it on Blurty.
To save space, there's also a mini-mode:
If you download the full version of the client, you can use the built
in spellcheck feature:
When minimized, Blurty hides down in the system tray. One of the options
is to have Blurty minimize whenever you make a new entry. This makes posting
new entries really easy - double click the system tray, type, click "Post",
and keep working on what you were working on. You don't need to use your
web browser to update your journal.
For each post, you can set a bunch of other information.... your mood,
what music you're listening to, who should be able to read it, etc. The
music can be automatically detected from WinAmp,
Sonique, Freeamp,
as well as others.
For posting secure journal entries.
See who lists you as a friend... green links are two-way relationships,
red links are people that list you, but you don't list them, and blue
links are people you list as a friend but dont list you. You can select
friends with red links and quickly add them, or remove anyone but red
links. You can also jump to friends' journals or profile page.
This box appears when you click the add friend button.
Here you can edit your friend groups, which control who can read what.
The Blurty client also lets you edit any old journal entries you've written,
even if you didn't write it with the Windows client - you can update and
edit from any client and they all stay in sync because the data is stored
on the server. (If you want to backup your journal, you must do so from
a page on the Blurty website.)
Editing a history item...
This dialog helps you make links and inline images. Even for those that already know HTML, the keyboard shortcuts make it a lot easier.
This is a list of all the user specific options you can set.
This is simply the about box. It tells you who wrote the program, the
current version, and maybe some other stuff too.
