Typepad.com - Blogging Service Integrates iPhone

You're probably familiar with the blogging platform Typepad (you recognize that iconic speech bubble, don't you?)—it's a popular choice among today's keenest and hippest blogger set. The likes of Seth Godin, Amber MacArthur, and even our favorite cubicle friend Dilbert use Typepad to expound on everything from new technologies to coffee beans and white pants.

Typepad's popularity can be attributed to it's ease of use—you don't have to be a tech geek to create an ultra slick lookin' blog; it's got a slough of professionally designed themes, and users can further customize their weblog using their dead simple drag and drop tools and WYSIWYG editor (no HTML skills required). Users can work with any type of media—video, photos, audio, the works. Additionally, for those who prefer to build their own designs, Typepad's got a custom template builder for personalizing fonts, borders, headers, etc. Typepad users also can take advantage of FeedBurner, ping notices, trackbacks, Six Apart Update Stream which automatically notifies Google and Technorati about new content, commenting, and built in spam control. If that's not enough, the service has just been launched for use with the iPhone.
