You probably use your smartphone to do a lot of the things that you previously needed a computer to do. You can use your smartphone to check your e-mail, update your Facebook status, and even watch a few YouTube videos.

Just as there are applications available for the Apple iOS platform, there is the official WordPress for Android application for Google Android smartphones and tablet devices. This isn’t just to view WordPress blogs; it allows you to do just about everything that you could do on your computer.

With this open source application, your Google Android smartphone can be used to write new posts, edit content, and manage comments on the go. It may not look as robust as the desktop counterpart, to be sure, but it provides more than enough functionality for your mobile blogging needs.

To download WordPress for Android, you can scan the QR code on the official download page on WordPress.org. Alternatively, you can find it directly through the Android Market, which is now allowing for web-to-device downloads.
