Where I have been

| September 10th, 2006

In case Anyone was wondering where I have been…I have moved off of wordpress.com to a drupal powered site at  twol.dreamhosters.com

I’m almost certain I will come back to wordpress once they have more features added to the site (wordpress.com)
:) Happy blogging

I just foind this really cool app called Windows Live Writer  I have to say …for everything microsoft has done…Maybe …Just maybe…they got something right… this thing is nice…It lets you do anything that the web interface does ….Except easier it even does catagories, tags , comments (enable/disable) , trackbacks , pings , timestamps , blockquotes ..everything …And for ONCE …just ONCE they are NOT forcing you to use there service …msn spaces ….Im using it right now for wordpress…and also …it is VERY easy …it took me about 30 seconds to startup (and thats with downloading posts too) All it needed was my blog address and user/pass

Im writing this post with it now …Here are some pictures :

 

 

You can even insert maps from  Windows Live Maps

Overall this is a pretty neat piece of software…even if microsoft made it…It is very smooth and integrates well  , even with non-microsoft products (*gasp*) it is even STANDARDS COMPLIANT (*double gasp!!!*)

 

Obligatory technorati tags:

Many people [that I know] are confused about the differences between wordpress and blogger so I made a quick chart to show the major differences… although I will let you come to the conclusion of which service is better ^_^

here is the chart:(click to view a larger version)

Note: The downloadable version of wordpress Does not have the same restrictions

This comparison the for the Wordpress.com Hosted version only
