Write to my Blog

I just stumbled upon a nice blogging tool called "Write to my blog". It is web based with many options for formatting your entry. Stuff like flickr, youtube, making tables in posts, etc.

I did this entry using Write to my Blog.

Upon clicking "Manage Posts", it will redirect to your blog account and after verification, it will revert to the web interface. What I like with this tool are the many options I can use for formatting my entry (as mentioned). Let's fire some tests:Blah! Blah! Blah underlined, i added a table (below and made some border color select)



table
test

I have to click the html icon to get pass this table, so far so good. :)



  • Verdict
You have to set to "NO" in formatting if line breaks are to be converted. This will introduce huge spaces between lines and so much more if you add "tables". I re-edited the html to make the post display correctly.

I'd still use blogger's posting tool or scribfire. Some of the features I like in Write to my Blog can be done in another html formatting tool like Dreamweaver or Pspad.

Having an above than dial-up internet connection poses some problems for me while using Write to my Blog. It takes time to open the buttons in a pop-up window and that it's too small for me to view all options (like when I added a table) and I can't resize the window (I am using Flock, by the way). I can't upload an image too which is one of my often used feature when blogging.

I give this service a 3.5 rating.

I got this tip from http://www.newmaria.com/ which was organized by Liz , that's one trail hunt. Try it yourself: http://writetomyblog.com/
