I’ve been playing around with Windows Live Writer. It’s a very nifty blog posting tool that enables you to write and manage content.
WYSIWYG editing
Writer knows your blog’s visual theme. So you can see exactly what your posts will look like as you write them, before you publish. No more wasting time previewing your posts online.
Rich media publishing
Writer makes publishing rich media as easy as sending e-mail. Insert and customise photos, maps, tags, and lots of other cool content—then click the “Publish” button. It’s that easy.
Compatible with your blog service
Writer can to publish to Windows Live Spaces, Sharepoint, WordPress, Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, Moveable Type, Community Server, and many other weblog services.
Powerful editing features
Creating compelling blog posts is much easier with the ability to insert and edit tables, check spelling as you type, and format and hyperlink content at your fingertips.
Offline editing
Now you can blog anytime, from anywhere. Writer synchronizes drafts on your blog with changes you make when you’re offline, so you don’t have to worry about reconciling different versions.
I’m pretty impressed by the features and attention to detail of this program. It is still in the Beta stage but it’s very polished and I haven’t found any bugs yet. One of the best, free, blogging tools out there. Go get it now.
