The Windows Live Writer folks did a nice job. Also check out RocketPost, http://www.anconia.com/rocketpost. It’s far more advanced than Writer, and there’s a free version. (I designed it.)
My take on it here: http://www.jackpearce.com/2006/windows-live-writer/
Unfortunately, it does not generate W3C compliant HTML all the time…
I have been playing with it for the last two days. It works fine and fast. Too bad I am moving away from Windows to Linux. Finally Uncle Bill (or maybe cousin Ozzie now) comes with great goodies when I already said goodbye to the OS. Ray, what about a Linux version?
I’ve been playing with this thing for a week or so, and so far it works great.
If you regularly insert code (C#, XML, VB etc.), then you might find my code formatter plugin of interest. Please take a look at http://stevedunns.blogspot.com/2006/08/code-formatter-plugin-for-windows-live.html
Cheers, Steve.
That plugin and many other plugins, as well as tutorials incl. screencasts, are listed on Windows Live Writer plugins.
