Microsoft Live Writer
As a blogging tool, Live Writer is really excellent, albeit with an occasional bug or unpolished infelicity. As an example of the latter, when your cursor clicks on a category name, the name is highlighted, but no check appears in the check box (as it does when using the WordPress internal editor). I imagine that in time things like this will be corrected through routine polishing. I’m a little worried that the Microsoft layoffs might have impacted the Live Writer group, but time will tell. In the meantime, give it a go. You may have to uncheck “Edit using template” under “View,” depending on the WordPress template you’re using. But I’m liking the program a lot.
