I was curious to find out how other people write posts on their blogs. I assume its mostly via the web admin interface or via a secure email address which posts to the blog. This is what I used to do as well. However, recently, I found out about Windows Live Writer, which, to be honest, is really cool. It is a desktop tool that allows you to write offline posts, preview them using your blog’s stylesheets and then post them when you are ready. It is packed with a lot other features. I think this is really useful as the editors in a webpage are always a bit dodgy when you write long posts. The best part is , it supports most of the blog softwares out there, including Wordpress which I use. This piece of software from Microsoft does look really neat.
I just installed Wordpress to start looking into it and as I started blogging more and more, I didn’t get a chance to change my blog software.
By the way, I am writing this post from within Windows Live Writer.
