Blogging Platform & Tools, Part 3: Blog Editor

Since I've chosen the quickest and cheapest route to blogging, aka blogger.com, it is no surprise that I need some extra tools to facilitate my work.

For example, I don't like working with their WYSIWYG editor. It is very limited, and you have to stay connected in order to write your posts.

That's where tools like Qumana (which I'm using to write this post) come in handy.

Some of the key features are:

• DropPad - gather links, text, and pictures by dragging them to a resizeable desktop pad


• Create media-rich posts of images and text together


• WYSIWYG editor


• Edit old posts from any of your blogs


• Offline editing to work at your own pace


• One-click posting to one or more blogs


• Technorati tagging - one click insertion of tags, with editing option


• Multi-window editing


• Seamless publishing and cross-publishing


• Integration with all major blog platforms


• Easy image uploading


• Built in image resizer for large images


• Simple image alignment


• Spell check and Thesaurus


• Save as HTML or RTF for offline editing
