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
Virtual Windows XP
Nov 3rd
Windows 7 has a very nice, unique feature and that is virtualization. You can create virtual Windows XP, and as many as your system can handle. There’s no limit on how many of them you create, and each one can be different. The Virtual Windows XP is easy to set up, you can create your own password and everything. Drivers are already installed so you don’t have to worry about pulling out those old CDs or searching the internet just to get your XP to work. The whole system connects to your Windows 7 just as if it was just another application.

Windows 7: The best thing to happen to computers?
Nov 3rd
I’m dead serious with the title. I’ve installed W7 a couple days ago, and I have been testing it in ever way a person like me would use Windows 7 for. Look, I am a very non-lenient consumer when it comes to OS, Imaging Programs, and anything to do with web-development. I have my reasons for rejecting Vista, I have my reasons for rejecting a new computer, I have good reasons why I use Linux only for school work. Everything I use on my computer, I criticize and I KNOW exactly what the product needs to perfect. Well, I’m on Windows 7 right now, and before I give you my review of the system, let me tell you about my computer: I have a Dell Inspiron 1501, here are the specs:
- Processor: AMD Turion 64 MK-36 2 GHz (single core AMD)
- Ram: 1920 mb (DDR2 SDRAM)
- Graphics Card: ATI Radeon Xpress Series 1150M (128mb)
- HDD: 160 gb SATA

Windows 7 is here! Dave already installed his and will probably write an article about it, but before THAT happens. Let’s look at all the other stuff we’re looking forward to.
