Question about LJ clients and entries

[icicle33]

This is kind of random, but I noticed that there are lj clients that you can use to post entries. I'm not sure why I never noticed it before, but with the new lj changes it was right there, begging for me to click on it with other ways to post link. Of course, I did

Do you mean like certain apps you can download to get onto LJ? If so... I just use the internet browser on both my phone and my Nook to get onto LJ and pretty much everything else. I feel that apps that do exactly the same that the internet website does is pointless and just takes up room on my memory.

I meant the lj clients that you can download on your computer and then use them to post entries. They idea seemed pointless to me, so I wondering if anyone was familiar with them or if they did anything special. I agree, the phone apps are nothing special either, no better than the browser.

I haven't used one; LJ seems to do what I need perfectly well in a web browser, so I don't see the point.

Yeah, I agree with you. I was just wondering if they did anything special. If not, then they would just be a waste of space on your computer.

I've used them before and they don't do anything special. ;) They are just handy to have open on the side (if you're a mac user?). I dunno. I was into them for a bit, but then lost interest. You're not missing out on much.

Thanks that helps a lot! I was considering downloading one, but now I won't bother. Sadly, I am not a mac user (I have a really old laptop), but one of these days I'm going to start a very minuscule fund to contribute to buying a future shiny and pretty mac in the future.
