Lift-off
I quite like Writely, although I wish it had a word count feature so I could measure my progress when I'm writing book reviews for Slashdot. The best thing about Writely is that it is WYSIWYG, with access to the underlying HTML.
I quite like Pages, Google's more or less experimental web site hosting service thingie. It's also WYSIWYG, with access to the underlying HTML.
I have a Blogger account, but I don't use it so much because it seems like a lot of trouble. In contrast, I like the newer interfaces provided by other parts of the Google empire, such as Notebook, or even Yahoo's My Web.
But now, it seems that Pages and Blogger may be merging, and Writely already has the ability to post to Blogger, so we may have achieved lift-off: a blogging tool which provides ease of use, including WYSIWYG, for both layout and content.
