Post to Wordpress Remotely With XMLRPC in PHP

One of Nickycakes’ first projects making cash online started a little less than a year ago and was not much more than an autoblog system that would post articles to wordpress every day. This thing was the worst piece of memory hogging spaghetti code you’ve ever seen and eventually caused The Great Nickycakes.com Blackout of 2007. Since it was kinda running on autopilot and the Cakes had so much other crap going on that was making more than the $1 a day or so in adsense revenue that this little script was getting, he just let the thing die and forgot about it. Having learned quite a bit since then, Nicky has realized that there were many things that were done bass-ackwards that could have been simplified. One of them was the complete mess of code that was used to make posts to wordpress. The script actually ran as a wordpress plugin and used WP’s own internal functions to make the posts, which is completely retarded and requires that the script be running on the same machine, which will surely cause you problems if you’re running 100 poorly written memory/cpu hogging scripts on the same shared hosting.
