I use aol as my ftp...
Is there any blogging tool with which I can use to compose my posts?
I write everything by html, cut and paste, preview, fiddle, publish, delete, start over, fix the dang link, restart computer...
Well, the answer is actually simple.

Yep. American Online has blogs. They call them "Journals" and it's really simple to set up. Check this out. See how easy that was?
But, like many simple interfaces, it gets its simplicity by not having all the features. But it does have some good features.
As you can see from my AOL blog, it supports some very useful features:
- Comments
- Blogrolls (although not BlogRolling.com script)
- Built-in hit counter
- Atom
SS feeds - Archives
- Posting via IM
About the same features as Blogger, except the built-in counter it has that Blogger doesn't. The advantage of Blogger is, besides being free (which means if you change ISPs you don't lose your blog), is that you can modify your HTML code to add features you need, such as TrackBacks (via HaloScan) and BlogRolling.com script.
But, to answer the question, if you use AOL, how can you set up a blog?
