Overview of Windows Live Writer

If you’re already blogging or thinking about starting up a blog, Windows Live Writer is an outstanding blogging tool. It’s included in Windows Live Essentials, and it’s different from the editors included in Blogger, WordPress, and others in several ways:

• You can use Windows Live Writer with almost any blogging platform: thus, if you switch between blogging platforms or work with multiple blogging platforms at the same time, you can keep using the same editor to write your posts.

• Windows Live Writer is designed to integrate with Internet Explorer 8 and 9’s Accelerator feature, making it easy to blog about any topic you find online.

• Windows Live Writer is designed to make it easy to add photos, maps, video, and other rich media to your blog posts.
