Is your blog built in Wordpress? If so, install this plugin

http://wordpress.org/plugins/json-api/

It's the same plugin they use in the tutorial. That way all your data will be the same and it will make it easier.

You would need to offer a JSON API for your blog, and then you would need to connect the app to that API instead of the the Treehouse API.
