Windows Live Writer

I really don't have any time to be doing this...but when else can I play around with my techie toys? I am seriously way behind on my list of "to dos" for blogging, texting, Twitter apps, and other social media tinkerings.

Ok. So everyone knows that Microsoft is evil, blah, blah, blah, but I thought I'd give Windows Live Writer anyway. I've been meaning to since I installed it during Beta.

It is definitely a lot easier to get away with blogging at work than my typical Blogger interface. It is actually pretty easy to switch between blogs, too. It is very WYSIWYG oriented, but more grown-up. It's easy to set up a publish date so you can write something and push it out at a later date without having to go pack and click "publish".

Above is a screen grab of this post. You can see that all the options/preferences/tools are on the same page--no navigating away from your post. All in all this is a nice app, even though it was made by the devil.

Mommy Likes Blogging

Basically, this blog was just born so I can post things I think are cool in the tech world. And to keep track of what I thought was cool so I can revisit them. And to have a repository of ideas, etc.

Plus, every techie needs a techie blog, right?
