Panic Transmit Ending Support for Google Drive

Michael, on blog.panic.com:

At some unknown point in the future, Google will revoke Transmit’s access to Google Drive. Sometime after that, we’ll be releasing updates to Transmit and Nova that remove the ability to create Google Drive connections.

My guess is that something similar is happening to Blot’s Google Drive support. Happy I didn’t went with moving from Dropbox to Google Drive a while back for my blogging back-end.

There’s always a tension between security and features. So I get the need for control over Google Drive access. However, when the features you want out of a service, disappear in the name of security. Then the whole reason to use the tool itself goes away.
