Windows Live Writer: First impressions

Installing Windows Live Mail on my notebook led me to try Windows Live Writer too.

I had signed up for Gmail and wanted to test its IMAP support in a local mail client. The Google ads in the web interface can be annoying.

After downloading the small installer, I could add tools such as Windows Live Writer and Windows Photo Gallery. I installed everything and opened Windows Live Writer.

This is my first experience with Windows Live Writer, and I like it. I hate the WordPress web interface and the extra steps needed to upload images. Credit to Microsoft.
