Windows Live Writer is awesome
Windows Live Writer is a Windows Application that let's bloggers post entries to their blog in a rich and interactive way instead of having to deal with the browser. The application is written in .NET and has some really cool features around adding pictures and layouts. It also has a plugin model which allows developers to add functionality to the app.
Here are some examples of what I can do with it:
The standard rich text editor features.
Ability to add and layout images:
Images from Google talk
using System; namespace VaibhavKamath { public class HelloWorld { public static void Main(string[] args) { Console.WriteLine("Hello World!"); } } }
It also has features like save draft, spell checker, auto-save draft just as we are used to in Outlook.
Really awesome!
