Jeeran and Performancing: Helping Arab Bloggers Succeed

Jeeran has teamed up with Performancing - www.performancing.com - to bring Arabic version of the widely popular blog editor - Performancing for Firefox.

If you're a blogger and are not familiar with Performancing then you should get out more :)  Performancing is a group of professional bloggers with a mission "To create a home for professional bloggers. A place where those that want to make money from their blogs can learn, and perfect the art of making a living from weblogging."

Performancing for Firefox provides bloggers with a seamless interface to popular weblog platforms such as Jeeran, WordPress and MovableType. It allows them to post to their blogs from a split screen within the Firefox browser. It also features drag-and-drop functionality for more efficient blogging, enabling bloggers to easily insert text or graphics into their posts, and a “notes” tab that allows bloggers to take notes while building and researching posts.

As a result of this partnership, Jeeran's bloggers can upgrade their blogging experience through the power of Performancing and the "open-mindedness" of our blogging engine, which enables integration with any external blogging applocation through an open API -http://api.jeeran.com/blogs/rpc/- wich adopts the universal MetaweblogAPI standards.

I encourgae you to download and use this great application. You will find that you wont be able to live without it :)

Ya36eek el 3afyeh Laith,

Thanks for your continuous efforts in improving Jeeran! I used the Performancing extension for a while ago, and I can see the amount of work you guys at Jeeran are undertaking to improve your service, I salute you.

However, I can't but notice that you people apparently don't know that Jeeran has big issues with FireFox that aren't yet fixed. For example, individual post pages don't render at all in FireFox! and now you're working on compatibility with a FireFox extension? shouldn't you fix the bigger problems first?

Sorry if that sounded cruel in any way, but am really wondering!

Dear Ghaith,

Thank you for your comment. We do realize the severity of this problem, and it has been brought to our attention by several people. However, we greatly appreciate your reminder of the seriousness of this issue.

We are in touch with some people in the Firefox development team who are helping us tackle the problem.

Thanks again. And please keep the feedback coming :)
