I think evil Microsoft might have made me happy…
Yesterday, I installed Windows Live Writer. After a few recommendations from the guys over at the Aussie Bloggers Forum, I thought I would give it a try. And tonight, I had plans. I had things to do. Writing a post for The Cerebral Mum was one of them.
But my stupid ISP, or my stupid network, or my stupid computer is screwing me around again. Seriously?! Seriously?! Yes, I watch Grey’s Anatomy too much but I have had more downtime in the last month than I have had in the last year and it’s driving me batty.
Yet here I am, offline, writing my post and when I get reconnected all I need to do is press publish from my desktop. I don’t need to cut and paste a text file, or upload or sign in or anything. In theory, anyway.
And now that I’ll be writing for 4 blogs (possibly 5 soon), I think this is going to be a very handy tool. I’ve set it up to publish here, at Blogging Personal, and at Aussie Bloggers. Once WinterWarm is taken off maintenance mode, I’ll add that too.
Incidentally, I’ve finally added a 3rd post over at Blogging Personal and my first Aussie Blogger’s guest post is up so if you’ve got nothing better to do…
Oh, and I’ve started a tumble log as well, but be warned: It isn’t pretty yet.
Anyway. This is probably not interesting. But looks like evil Microsoft might indeed have made me happy.
Seriously!
And look at that! Now it’s time to see what this puppy can do. (I hope I don’t send it to the wrong blog.) Testing, testing…
