Blog Big
With Windows Live Writer, you can compose your blog offline, then publish your entry with just a few clicks to one or multiple blogging sites. It's easy to bring your posts to life with photos, video, music, maps, emoticons, and more – and Writer lets you preview your blog before you publish, so you can make sure you've got your story straight.
- Works with your blog service: Automatically configure your blog to publish to most major blog services, including Windows Live Spaces, SharePoint, Wordpress, Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, Moveable Type, Community Server, and others. Don't have a blog or space set up yet? Writer will help you set one up, quickly and easily.
- Preview before you post: See what your blog post will look like before you post it. Writer detects your blog theme – including fonts – and displays it while you compose and edit.
- Easy rich media: Insert your photos, video links, maps, tags, and other rich media into your blog easily. Writer publishes all of your stuff automatically when you post.
