Windows Live Writer, is a new free software, currently in beta version, produced by Microsoft to facilitate editing and publishing articles on blogs. I had learned by him by a few days ago but laziness did not agree to install it until today :-)
UPDATE: The application was withdrawn after a few years.
This Windows Live Space is no longer available.
Currently, there is a version called Open Live Writer, which does the same thing.
“Open Live Writer is like the Word for your blog. Open Live Writer is a strong and easy blog editor that allows you to create blog posts, add photos and videos and then publish them on your site. You can also compose blog posts offline and publish them on your return online. Open Live Writer works with many popular blog service providers, such as WordPress, Blogger, Typepad, Moveable Type, Dasblog and many others.”
Windows Live Writer (Beta) caracteristici:
- Once installed and set the software address for the desired blog address it imports from the server style and the layout features of the theme used.
- Editarea text se face WYSIWYG (font, headings, fonts, colors, background images, paragraph spacing, margins and block quotes)
- Simple insertion in the post of images, their customization and upload to the server without the need for FTP customer.
- Map Publishing (I don't use that at the moment)
- Compatibility: Blogger, Livejournal, Typepad, WordPress and others that I probably don't know.
Looking at the page http://ideas.live.com/ I see that a series of new products have started to remove the ones from Microsoft and some even interesting. It remains to be seen how the relay varinals will look at many of the new products that are currently a beta stage.
