This is a small update to tell you what to expect in the next version of Scripto:
1. More languages - YES! But I need help with this as I don't speak all languages! Please let me know if you want to see your language (script) on Scripto.
2. More Blog platforms - Yup, I'm testing this right now. Scripto will support a whole range of other Blog platforms including Wordpress.
3. Some additional features - This is not finalised yet, so I'm not going to talk about it now.
