Setting Up Windows Live Writer With Your WordPress Blog
May 17th
I’ve been writing for numerous blogs for a while now. And it’s the same thing every time, I have to log in to the blogging system (Blogger for example), pick the right blog I write for, add a new post and remember how to use the particular editing interface. It’s the same with WordPress, LiveJournal, and all the other services. And it’s especially true for self-hosted blogs where you can’t log into one place to access several blogs (as is possible in Blogger).
Now, there are a lot of blogging clients that make that a breeze. What I will focus on today, will be setting up the Windows Live Writer (Windows Only, obviously). Here is what I will cover:
- Downloading and installing Windows Live Writer
- Setting up the Writer with your self-hosted WordPress Blog
- A sample blog post
