Although in general I find Typepad easy to use -- my personal blog, A Working Model is hosted in Typepad: www.stoweboyd.com/awm -- I have one major pet peeve. The stupid window that pops up when you want to post an entry at a time other than "now" is completely annoying.

If all you want to do is backpost something a few minutes ago, or last Thursday, the interface works ok. But if you are doing what I was today -- moving a bunch of posts written in 2002 from a blog I am shutting down into AWM -- it just sucks. The only way to designate a month in the past is to click on the tiny, tiny carat to the left of the current month, and to get back to 2002 you have to click through every month in 2005, 2004, 2003, and so on. Even worse, because the two carats and the month are centered, and the lengths of the month's names vary, the stupid little carat doesn't even stay still. Completely horrible, especially since in MovableType you can simple edit the numeric fields in a second. Ugh.
