Hey! If you blog, I feel you need to try out Windows Live Writer.
Microsoft has IMO, a killer offline blogging tool. It does everything I wanted in an offline editor, and the tie-in to the Windows Live Toolbar is incredible.
WLW works with WordPress, Blogger, Moveable Type, and LiveJournal in addition to Windows Live Spaces. The functionality is at the right level, and allows you to preview, create drafts, store drafts online/offline, and work with pictures, maps, fonts, and colors right in the interface.
It also has my most desired feature – a spell checker built right in. While still in beta, it feels like a shipping product, and I’ve covered only a fraction of the features of this great freebie from MS.

Posted using Windows Live Writer!

Well! Microsoft comes along and does it again. This morning on Geekzone, I found a post about Windows Live Writer, an offline blog post editor. I’ve been looking for something like this for some time.
This post is created using the new tool. I’ll post more shortly with my thoughts and such.

Sorry for not posting in awhile, the workload in my day job has consumed all my time this summer and things haven’t gone the way I hoped they would.
I’m going to try and get back into a good posting rythum, starting with a review of the Jabra BT500 over at The Mobile Lifestyle this weekend. I’m about a week overdue on getting that done, so I’ve got to start with that.
There may also be some changes in some things on this blog as well. More things I have ideas, concerns, hopes, dreams, and gripes about, along with comments on technology and such.
More later!

The busy folks over at WordPress.org have revved up ver. 2.0.4 of WordPress. Mainly a security and bug fix revision, this is a recommended upgrade for every WordPress blog.

Ugh, its been a tough couple of weeks and getting around to blogging is actually a task right now. With the amount of work to do at my day job, its been too taxing to find something worth talking about.
That and I’ve allowed myself to get too wrapped up in CSI on Spike after work. Great show, but I haven’t taken the time to sit down and pound on the keyboard.
♫ I come from a land down-under… ♫
Yeah, I’ve got Men At Work playing again – helps me think (weird I know). Now where are those Dire Straits CDs…
The hardest part of the last few weeks is the lack of concentration when I fire up the old blog, I’m just not able to focus. Hmm, I do need to write a bit on bluetooth headsets – I’ve yet to get started on my quest yet. Guess I’ve found something to start on for now.
