Test with Microsoft Live Writer Beta

Let's see how this text will end up on my blog.

First let's insert a picture:

OK, seems to be nicely imported into Live Writer and resized. They even added a nice shadow frame automatically. Wow, would be cool if this ends up really WYSIWYG on the web.

Finally, let's add a link to my Flickr Photolog.

Wow, it even seems you can add tags, provided by Technorati, Flickr and others. But I try that later.

Now let's publish it and see what happens.

And now I edited the post with this comment, let's see what happens...

Yep, what I hoped it would do, that is no create a second post, but nicely editing the previously posted entry. Kewl!

Finally I added the Flickr4Writer plugin. Now let's see what happens if I use the "Add Flickr Image" button:

No shadow border here yet still, it works and it let's you configure a bunch of stuff.

Now let's see if this text will actually be ALgerian typeface on the blog. 

Yep, very, very nice!

One of the best little tools I have seen recently. Go on and get your copy at Microsoft Live Writer Beta

WOW!!! This IS impressive, totally WYSIWYG. Very cool tool by Microsoft and it works on other blogging tools as well!
Two thumbs, way, way up in the air!
This will be my new default editing tool, hands down.
