Bloglogger should used published date instead of modification date #298

I noticed that the Bloglogger plugin uses the modification date of the entries when logging a post in Day One. Usually this is not an issue, but there are situations in which this does not work out well.

Sometimes I schedule a bunch of post, for example when I am on a trip. In that case the new posts won't be logged, since the modification date is before the latest parse date of slogger. If I re-run slogger with the t parameter, the posts show up, but all on the same day.

If Bloglogger uses the publication date of the post, this issues would not happen.

Too many Atom feeds don't contain the publish date, only an entry for "updated," which seems to usually be the publish date. What blogging system are you using so I can test output? If you have a feed url I can look at, that would be great.

I am using Movable Type and the feed URL would be http://canasto.es/feed/blog.xml
