I think would be good to start a new thread..

have 2 mango blogs, such-
1. applications/myBlogA/
2. applications/myBlogB/

From myBlogA I am trying to post to myBlogB (author and categories exist on both), using API.
<cfscript>
myBlogBAPI = createObject("component", "applications.myBlogB.api.API");
postID = myBlogBAPI.newPost(argumentCollection=data);

</cfscript>

But it keeps posting back to Blog A- even though in the code above you can clearly see I am posting to Blog B. So everytime- i enter a post in admin section to Blog A I end up havi 2 blog post of same in Blof A.

Any pointers, thoughts, ideas- as to what I am doing wrong here.

You can't post to blogB from blogA because the API will use the current blog you are in to make the post. If you need to do that, then I would suggest using the API but calling it via web services:
myBlogBAPI = createObject("webservice", "http://yourblog/myBlogB/api/API.cfc?wsdl";);
postID = myBlogBAPI.newPost(argumentCollection=data);

or
myBlogBAPI = createObject("webservice", "http://yourblog/myBlogB/api/APIService.cfc?wsdl";);
result = myBlogBAPI.newPost(argumentCollection=data);

if you want to get more information besides the post id
