Windows Live Writer – Coming of Age

If you do a little more on the internet than update your facebook and Twitter, one of the best websites on the internet is Makeuseof.com.

Every Year They BloomIt has many entries regarding Windows Live Writer.  In January of this year, they did the rare thing in recommending WLW,  a MS product. In truth I would say they go to great lengths to find products alternative to the MS software.  We have absolutely no problem with that.

It makes writing for a blog as simple as writing a document.  With add-on such as Zemanta, Cross Post, Digg This, Picasa, Amazon Quick Link, and many more, it saves a lot of legwork when designing the blog entry.

Sometimes the add-on that recommends links has it’s own quirks.  When I wrote tmpD0“WLW” for Windows Live Writer, it created a link to Google Maps showing what appears to be the tower for a radio station in…  Cincinnati.  So, don’t just blindly accept the links it throws you.  Most of them have been fine, but still, it is posting the link on your blog.
