Where have I been?

Well, I got a Macbook. I’ve been spending a lot of time getting acquainted with it, and no time on my PC. My blog has suffered, because instead of posting online I had been using blog editing software called Zoundry. Great program. Well, it doesn’t offer Mac support, so I’ve been looking into other options. Then it occurred to me that I might as well post this one here within my browser. Trouble is, I’m somewhat addicted to having a stand-alone editor, so I can hardly stand to write any more right now. I will tell you that Qumana, which is free, works ok, but it has no support for the <—more—> tag that allows the first part of the post to appear on the main page with a link to the full post at the end. Because I have frequently used and fully intend to continue using this feature, due to my extra long posts, I cannot stick with Quamana. I haven’t really found any other free options that work. Any suggestions?

  • Thanks, I'll have to check it out. Even though I do most of my writing "online"...
  • I definitely prefer Zoundry to BlogDesk. It's easy to use and intuitive in a lot of ways.
  • "...you hear them every day..." :D
  • Excuses, excuses ... ;-)
  • Ahh... doesn't say much about my reading comprehension skills, does it? Back in your PC days, did you try BlogDesk? If so, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on it vs. Zoundry...
  • Thanks for the recommendation -- but unfortunately, BlogDesk is PC exclusive. *sigh*
  • You've looked at BlogDesk, right? http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm

    I'm so used to writing everything online that I rarely fire it up, but I recall several people recommending it to the point that it prompted me to download a (free) copy.

    I'm too addicted to the live preview online to work in an offline environment, even though I know I should for backup's sake. Plus I blog from multiple locations sans laptop, so it'd drive me nuts to have all my drafts on one computer and not be able to work on them somewhere else.
