Do you ever heard a future post in blog?If you a Wordpress user, I believe you have known this. In Wordpress you can make a future post with the "Timestamp" ability in Wordpress. So you can prepare a blog post now, and you can set the date and the time in the future to the post will be publish in your wordpress blog..
How about Blogger User?Does blogger has this future post feature?
I am a blogger, and I know that Blogger doesn't has this great feature. Blogger only has an ability to modified the post date and post time only, but when we hit publish button, the post will publish immediately but the date and the time is in future.This a funny thing to me, what Blogger purpose make this feature?Do you have any idea about this?
I really want someday blogger could add this real future post in their blog system, so i could use this feature for get more benefits.
What the benefit of using a future post in Blog?
I use blog not only for write a diary book online for me, but I use blog to share about anything useful to others like you, so I need to update my blog content regularly, at least once a day. With updating my blog regularly with valuable content I hope my blog can give more benefit for my blog visitor, because I appreciate them who spend their time to visit my blog. I don't want to make them disappointed after they come to my blog, and they not get anything to take.
Beside that, sometimes I have a good mood to write several article in one day, but sometimes I have "blank" mood, only one article or none article I can write in the "blank" mood. With the future or schedule post, I can schedule my article after I write that in the good mood to the future date. I will make my post will publish once a day, So i will not worry again if the next day I get blank mood and cannot write anything.
Another great benefit of using scheduled post are we can use this future post to make our post scheduled at holiday, like Saturday, Monday or another big holiday. We can make several post before holiday, and scheduled the post to be published on the holiday schedule. I think it will be perfect to me. I can spend the holiday time with my family, like take a vacation, go to shopping, visit great place in another city, etc. While I go to vacation with my family, my blog is still updated daily with my scheduled post. It sounds really great to me.
The last but not least benefit of making scheduled post for future is you can do another thing beside writing and updating your blog or site. You can do link building, commenting another blog, get active in your favorite forum and discussion, socializing with other blogger with social bookmarking, and many many things you can do without worried your blog doesn't updated daily.

great idea, thanks goonie!
i've used emailschedule once, but never used it again because it sent advertisements with the emails which i can't stand. i just tried lettermelater and it doesn't have the taglines, and it even has an html editor window. cool beans.
