I’ve written a few articles here on Lockergnome and I never really considered it “Blogging.” I just thought of it as publishing an article; to tell you the truth, I never really liked the way “Blogger” resonated with me. It always kind of conjures up images of self-important schmucks typing away about nonsense whilst locked up in some dimly lit room with their stupid computers humming away.

Nevertheless, it’s come to my attention that I actually AM BLOGGING. Not necessarily from writing articles here on Lockergnome, but I came to the realization while working on my project involving Office Live, Spaces Live, and other Windows Live facilities. There’s no doubt that “Spaces” articles are blogs (they title them as such) :-).

Not caring too much for the editor built into “Spaces” I went to the private MVP newsgroup for a better solution and came across this. It’s really a fantastic little application.

It’s so great and the UI is so damn good I think I’ll do a Camtasia screen video of it.

Believe my recommendation, I’m an editor freak. I built this live site editor, so I’ve got a special interest in content editors.

So, I got to thinking; If this application works so well with Live Spaces, wouldn’t it be great if it would work with entries on Lockergnome?

Well guess what? It works! I’m blissfully using this fantastic free blog editor right now to write this Lockergnome post. In a few seconds I’m going to click one single button and it will seamlessly log through the Lockergnome system and, voila! Done… right after I run the spell check. Maybe “Blogging” doesn’t resonate so badly with me…
