Windows Live Writer

11 11 2007

Today I was working on my notebook and wanted to install the Windows Live Mail and use the Gmail account which I created last night. Gmail supports the IMAP protocol and I want to see how this would work with a local client without all those adds added on the google webclient version. After downloading a small tool from Microsoft Download website I could add the download of Windows Live Writer and also the Windows Photo Gallery was available. I installed everything and started the Live Writer. In a second I will save this post with the screenshot.

This is really amazing. I hate the Wordpress gui and troubles with Uploading my pics and screenshot. Credits to Microsoft.
