I just came across Microsoft’s new product for bloggers, i.e. Windows Live writer, Its awesome software for bloggers who want to give fresh look to there blogs, Windows live writer provides amazing tools and facilities to bloggers for writing post from there desktop itself.
The Windows Live writer works on many popular blogging platforms like WordPress, blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, Movable Type, etc. Currently most popular blogging platforms are Blogger and WordPress. so support to these to platforms will make this software popular very easily.
Download windows live writer
The windows live writer provides features like uploading image directly, formatting the text, adding links etc etc.
Few of the best features of Windows live writer provided are:
- Instant uploading of images with awesome effects to the images
- Croping, resizing, tilting of images with single click.
- Spell check for more than 20 languages.
- Live preview of post.
- Support to Plugins which will enhance your experience with Windows Live writer (visit:Windows live gallery for plugin list)
But currently it do not have support to WordPress All in one seo pack and similar plugins, so to add such custom fields you need to login to your wordpress admin area.
I think you should try windows live writer if you are blogger. Its amazing experience to use it. Simple and awesome.
Microsoft is now planning to enter into every field, from Software to now launched Bing search engine with big bang, and now here is the software for blogger. They are planning to make themselves as the major player in computer industry. so lets see whats next..

I’ve been using Windows Live Writer for over 6 months now. I’ve found it to be great. I do agree, that you still have to make visits back to the dashboard quite often, and it would be nice if there was more you could do from the desktop tool instead, in terms of administration.
Dont quote me, but i did hear that MS had actually abandoned further development on this software. Which is a real shame.
