I’m giving the newest version of Windows Live Writer a try. For more than a year, I’ve been using the beta version of this software and now I have finally upgraded to the current offering. This is my first post using it. I’ll let you know what I think after I’ve used it for awhile.
Some of you may be thinking that using this kind of software is not in keeping with blogger purity as it creates messy, inefficient code. This is true but, current constraints on my time and attention lead me to believe that the best service I can do for my blog at this time is to streamline my posting process, and, hopefully, by making it easier to post, enticing myself to do so more often.
I’ve been running Live Writer since I got my lappy. I only really get very marginal savings in time spent generating blog posts but some of its features are rather nice. And being able write my posts whilest I am offline is rather useful. If I can tweak it a bit more then I’ll be set but some of the code inefficiencies are seriously bothering me. And I’ve found some serious problems that led to large wastes in time.
Overall though I’m pleased with Live Writer. It is a decent piece of codeworking. Hopefully it’ll help you out in your quest to maintain a more frequent posting schedule and add to your enjoyment of blogging.
Whatever gets you to post makes me happy! :D
