    I use to use BlogDesk, but I think there might be better ones. Let me know what you use.

    Also if you have one that can download all old posts that would be great as well, as I upgraded my comp and now don't have my old Blog Desk!

    ecto for windows. It's not free but definitely worth it.
    Unfortunately a lot of the free ones go the route of w.bloggar -- a good free program, but it hasn't been in a long time and it looks like it's pretty much dead.

    I've tried out Post2Blog, and let me tell you it SUCKS!

    Blogdesk is the best! At the moment though I can't seem to get it working with VISTA, I am going back to XP tommorow!

    Blogdesk is GOOD.
    However, I would prefer the blog list on the left to have a category support as well. But I guess, I have too many blogs listed that is why :p

    blogdesk is the best. i have tested BlogJet, Ecto, BlogDesk and some other desktop blogging clients, and i choose Blogdesk. it is simple and easy to use.

    Did you try Windows Live Writer and Post2Blog (this uploads pics to flickr, imageshack etc.)?

    I've tried post2blog, you can't resize images. Also it's quite confusing. With Blogdesk you can Manage alot of blogs without any hassle.

    Windows Live Writer is the BEST one out there. Supports Categories, Custom Embedded tags and Post TimeStamps. It supports Blogger, Typepad and Wordpress Blogs. The only thing which is missing is support for embedding pictures from Flickr and other 3rd parties smoothly.

    i think, all desktop blogging clients have the same features. the only difference is whether it is easy to use or not.
