I’m trying out Windows Live Writer

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

I’ve been using Zoundry for a while to do my blog posting … because I really don’t like posting online. I’ve been burnt one time too many by online editors crashing just before I save something.

A lot of people have been saying that Windows Live Writer is a better option, because it stores your style information … so that as I type, the blog entry actually looks like it will look when it’s posted.

So I’m trying it out.

One thing I don’t like about any of these offline writers is that you can’t really use Wordpress tags. Or at least I haven’t been successful in using them. I can set categories, but I end up posting everything as a draft and then updating the tags online before I publish.

Oh well.
