I’ve had trouble with the schedule feature not working. That was a known issue with older versions, supposedly fixed with version 3.0 or so. I did find a plugin that looks for failed scheduled posts with dates in the past and posts them, so I’ll see if that works. I would love to write at night and schedule it to appear automatically between 6 and 7 am.

If you find yourself on a writing roll, after saving your drafts you can schedule them to appear as posts in the future. I do this a LOT, scheduling new content to appear each morning.

This also comes in handy if you work on your blog during business hours. I know no one does that, but if they did, theoretically you could finish up your blog entry during the day and then schedule it to appear later that evening, after business hours.
