If you are not already keeping a Blog of your own you may be finding you are soon to be a minority. It has become so easy to create one now the complex part is actually writing in it, and this article is about new ways to create or edit Blogs from other programs, offline so to speak. The first I'll describe is one I am trial-ing to make this part of this post. It's a freebie from Microsoft called Windows Live Writer .

Windows Llive Writer Editor I am trying to demonstrate how it will handle images very nicely, it even adds the show effect on the graphic you see.

Because it is a Microsoft product it handles inserting info from all the Microsoft services (which I am not a big fan, MS maps, video sites instead of YouTube and Flickr and Google Maps).

For a Windows product, it's not bad.
