In case any WordPress users haven’t noticed, Matt has posted a new release – version 2.0.3. The upgrade includes some small enhancements for importing TypePad posts, some performance tweaks, a fix for podcast enclosures, and several security related updates back-ported from the upcoming 2.1 release.
The upgrade proceedure is the same process as previous versions – super simple! Read more on Matt’s post on the WordPress Development blog.

So Ilium Software has been serving up great titles for 9 years now! Check out their 9th Anniversary Sale going on for one day only, Friday June 2nd, 2006!
I’ll be picking up the NewsBreak software – a steal at $3.33 instead of the regular $19.95.
Sure, I sound like a huckster, but I’ve been using three of their other applications for a year now and only have positive things to say about them (ListPro, DockWare, eWallet).

Pocket PC Thoughts is reporting PhatWare’s release of CalliGrapher 8.3. CalliGrapher is an excellent handwriting recognition application for Pocket PC. You can read the press release here.
This application has been around for many years, and comes highly recommended. Over the years the revisions have added numerous productivity enhancements. The recognition engine is the best in class, recognizing print and cursive writing.
If you are disappointed with the Transcriber handwriting applet that comes with Pocket PC, check out this great tool. It merges well with two other apps that PhatWare has – PhatPad and PhatNotes. Great stuff when combined together.

Last time I used w.bloggar was a few months ago, probably in January. I have been looking for a really good offline blogging tool. Something that allows me to create, save and store posts offline prior to publishing them on my blog. Of course, I don’t really want to spend any money on a tool so I’ve been searching and trying most of the freeware blogging tools.
I understand that there are several commercial tools that may fit the bill, but I’ve not researched all those yet. So I have gone back and taken another look at w.bloggar, a feature packed freeware blogging tool. To my surprise, it has been updated since I visted the site last. Some new features and support for MSN Spaces has been added. Anyway, this post is my first one written in the latest version of w.bloggar.
Since MS Word 2007 is supposed getting an injection of blog posting tools, we’ll see how the two stack up as Word matures from beta code to RTM. The one thing I think both of these tools are never going to support is a WordPress plugin I have installed on my blog that automatically inserts a Technorati tag into each post – all I have to do on the post editing page is to enter a few keywords. This means that I’ll have to visit my site after posting to add the Technorati tags. I’ll keep you posted as I discover the pros and cons of w.bloggar.
