back in the X-Term window after 3 secs or so I saw this:
settings.conf exist
accounts.conf exist

Back to WordPy window, still not doing anything, then finally a message came up saying: MaeomoWordPy is not responding. Close application?......so I did.

Back in X-term, it said "killed" under the 2 lines I quoted above.

I checked, and needless to say, the test blog entry never got added to the blog.

Thanks for your help.
Well, when a application hang, the OS closes it. According to your comments, maemo wordpy had hanged. The worst thing is it doesn't show any error.

This time I selected the other one (the one that wasn't blue), composed a test blog entry, hit publish. This time I got a screen that said "Publishing", but it kept on and on publishing (it was only a one word test !!)

This time, back in X-Term, there's an error message "No Labels".
Well, it isn't exactly an error message else a info message. No problem with it.
Btw, it could be some problem getting the blog name and blog id. And because it is shown two times in the configuration.

The test post still hasn't shown up on blogger though (now 5 mins later) but that may just be due to a slow update process.

My question now is: was I just "lucky" this time, and do I need to put some random word in the Technorati labels area to publish a post?
Technorati tags is an optional feature. You *should* can to publish without technorati tags.
And when maemo wordpy publish an article, it *should* be shown in blogger instantaneously.
But there must be something failing in your installation that is giving these problems.

My ideas are,
1) Delete the configuration directory: start the terminal application, and run "rm -Rf /home/user/.maemowordpy/"
Try again.

2) Uninstall maemo wordpy, and reinstall it. Try again.

BTW, have you tried to publish from some other software? Is your blogger installation different from the default ones?

If I imagine some thing more I will add it here, but just now I am empty
