Are You Utilizing Desktop Blogging Tools?
My answer to that question is yes, these days. Editing lots of blogs are a lot easier using a desktop blogging application, although there are limitations to it. If you’re curious about what I’m using, check out Blogging Software for Mac Users over at Devlounge.
So are you using a desktop application to blog? Which one, and why?
Yeah, I’m using Windows Live Writer. Started using Performancing For Firefox, then one of the guys over at Performancing recommended giving Live Writer a go. Haven’t looked back.
The biggest benefit to using it is not getting distracted by your blog’s admin pages - the tendency to check backlinks, stats etc.

That’s a bonus I haven’t thought of. Thanks for pointing it out, Gerard!

No probs - works with a pretty wide array of blogging platforms, including Drupal, which I’m enjoying at the moment. Which means if you’re ever bloggin over at Performancing, you can hook in with that too.
