    How many of you use Windows Live Writer?

    Its pretty cool and works with popular blogging platforms such as Blogger, Wordpress and TypePad. Plus it allows easy WYSIWYG editor as well as an HTML counterpart.

    Not anymore. It's not a bad piece of software for a WYSIWYG editor, but I prefer clean HTML ;)

    It also has the HTML editor support. I use that alot especially when my pictures and other media do not align right.

    Why do some people just talk off the top of their head? It seems like Window's bias has become just as much an epidemic as Bush bias syndrome:rolleyes:

    I agree. I bet that he never even tried Live Writer. Whatever... :rolleyes:

    I use it because it's easier to arrange stuff, like pictures and video. Manually is not so easy in WordPress/Blogger.

    Just downloaded it last week and haven't had a chance to try it out.
    I have several WordPress blogs and I think it will make it easier to write for the blogs when I do have internet access.

    That's true. I can easily write articles offline, arrange all the media and content and then publish with one click.

    It's very easy to write blogs in it. And arrange stuff in a post/page. It supports a lot of bloging services.

    Wow, I can't believe all the people on "this" forum that haven't heard of this. Come to think of it. I've never heard of it either :)

    Can't believe MSFT isn't getting the word out about things like this better. Maybe they should advertise and improve with all that money that they could buy a subpar yahoo with?

    I can't belive either. So many bloggers, and almost none of them knew about Live Writer. :)
