I signed up. Was as simple to use as the video describes.

Things I would like added:

1)Possibility to add a seperate about page and other pages.

2)Allow for a one line blurb on sidebar to describe what the blog is all about.

3)Custom Title for blog/site. Eg <name>'s blog to My Awesome Site.

4)Option to remove date from post instead of having to use CSS display:none:

Otherwise I'm happy. Was using WordPress and SquareSpace recently to host a simple blog but felt like it was overkill. I do not like either of their mobile apps. They feel clunky compared to IA Writer.

And for me, for writing, you cannot beat the simplicity of your favourite text editor and dropbox for publishing. Whether on desktop or mobile. The combination works really well.

First impressions, am happy with blot.im. Its barebones but lets see how it turns out in the wild.
