MS has launched a new application called "live writer", a stand-alone app targetted at writing and publishing blogs (for now atleast)
There are several cool things about it is including support for blogger (and others) and a WYSIWYG version blog editor, which means you can see exactly what your blog post will end up with. There is even control for resizing and controlling embedded images! This is a far cry from Blogger's editor which makes formatting posts a real pain
One thing I can't get to work is the "Update weblog style" menu option, which should, in theory, let me update the CSS and layout of my page
live writer is definitely the first usable app to come out of MS's live effort - it is purported to be written by JJ Allaire, who wrote ColdFusion
It's a must try-out - link to app
