Blogging with Microsoft Live Writer

It's easier than I thought.  Surprisingly, the Writer detected blogger.com settings and configured everything automatically.  I even have my layout profile imported into Writer.  So what I see when I enter text into the Writer is what I actually going to get when the blog entry is published on the blogger.com.  Much better than typical web-based blogging tools in which you have to from edit to preview mode to see how your text will look in the blog.

Next time I'm going to try the Writer with the spaces.com.  The Writer is supposedly optimized for working with spaces more than with any other blogging service.  We'll see if that's actually true.
