Live Writer
January 27, 2008 |
In my continuing search for a way to blog without needing write in a text box I have downloaded Live Writer from Microsoft. I know what you are thinking. Microsoft, Yuck. Me too. But I have to tell you that out of Ecto and w.bloggar Live Writer is really much more polished. To be fair the other two are written by individuals and not a huge software corporation but that does not change the fact that it is a pleasure to set up and work with. The three pieces of information it needs to configure itself is your blogs URL and your login name and password. Live Writer figures out what type of blogging software you are using and configures itself to work with the features that your blogs API supports. It took about 12 seconds to configure itself for use with WordPress.
