I used to love the Windows version of LiveWriter, and saw a tweet today to let me know that an open-sourced fork of it was available. This may restore my love of blogging; the interface is simple to use, and doesn’t feel as unfamiliar as the “blocks” used in WordPress these days.
The tool is a bit rough in places; I couldn’t get plugins to work, and pasting the above image from the clipboard also was challenging, but overall, it’s a welcome advance. Just feels natural to an old-school blogger like myself.
