Add the ability to publish to specific blogs #22

It would be nice to allow the user to login to their account to publish directly to their personal blog. Just a thought. It would, however, make the application perhaps less simple? There are a few ways it could complicate the program but if done right in a non-intrusive way(not mandatory) then I feel like this could be implemented correctly.

I had considered that perhaps I would be able to log in via the CLI, and then have my posts publish as anonymous first, with the ability to move them to a blog in the web interface or something?

I don't need the app to handle it, beyond knowing that I'm logged in.

The writeas CLI now supports logging in (instructions here), so if you install the latest version and then authenticate via the command-line, you can indeed publish to your account. You'd just need to move posts to your blog via the web interface.

Otherwise, we do plan to support publishing directly to your blog from the desktop app in the future.
