    RSS2BLOG v. AutoBloggerPro (privacy discussion)





    One thing that I like about plain old wordpress, is that I can go there, grab the latest code and work on my own shit and nobody's the wiser. I make my sites, do my mods, and it's nobody's business. The one thing that troubles me about these 2 scripts is having to disclose what I am up to and what I have planned for the site.

    Do both RSS2BLOG and ABP require that I tell them the domain I'm going to be installing on?

    Apologies if the question is old, or has been answered.

      When logged into the AutoBloggerPro members area you list what domains you're installing it on in order for the archive to be generated to used. The archive will only work with the domains it's licensed to. This data is kept private.

            short answer with R2B is no...

            longer answer...R2B doesn't call home at install or later, not even for updates. So once you have an authorized download, you are free to put the script wherever you want. It is not tied to the WP install and doesn't even have to be on the same server.

            For total ninjicity use common sense and choose an install directory like /ilovechicorolls rather than /rss2blog to avoid any possible directory scanning exploit seeking mofos.

              So how does that work exactly? I tell them a domain name when I buy, but then can put anywhere?

                        rss2blog just posts to whatever blog you tell it to
                        you just fill in your info like it shows here:
                        http://rsstoblog.com/tutorials/index...logInformation
                        and it basically acts like a human posting to that specified blog for you

                        another great thing about rss2blog is that not only posts to wordpress, but also Blogger, TypePad, MovableType, LiveJournal and MSN Spaces

                            yes...you install it on one domain and control an unlimited amount of blogs from that one single install....the only person that knows what is in that admin is you

                            right now I am controlling 18 blogs with my one single install

                                        As we host a few hundred thousand blogs it should be easy to see why she might find us to be someone to snuggle up to.

                                                  RSS2Blog has features ABP doesn't, such as posting to other blogs (not for much longer). Both serve different purposes and have different features. ABP allows for a few things RSS2Blog does not. Both are great products and have different approaches to the mass production of blogs.

                                                  I do have to say though, RSS2Blog needs to improve upon their support, when I was an RSS2Blog customer, it took me 2 1/2 weeks to get a reply that my download was corrupt. Not cool ...
