Hi

How do I set the timezone of my blog? At the moment I have to manually enter the date and time for each new entry.

First of all, your server's timezone setting should be correct. Plus, there's an option "Server time Offset" in the admin backend -> Configuration -> Appearance and Options to correct any time difference between server and blog.

Ok, will try that and see if it works. My blog is hosted in USA appearantly and I am in south africa. :)
Do I put like the amount of hours for example 5 (hours) or do I insert the 02:00 Timezone setting that south africa is in?

This isn't really a major issue, just as long as the new article is on the same day that I create it, it's only the time that is way off. The date is mostly correct.

Hi!

You enter the hours, so "5" if you add 5 hours from the server time to get yours, or "-5" if you are 5 hours befor your server's time.

HTH,
