Windows Live Writer CTP Released

June 2, 2008 7:08 PM from

Windows Live Writer is one of the best tools to use when blogging. I have talked about it plenty of times before, so I was really excited to see the Technical Preview released today. There are some really cool features that have been added.

Just a few improvements are:

Upload videos to Soapbox
Image cropping and tilting
Additional border styles
Support for LightBox and other image previewing effects (like Slimbox, Smoothbox, and others)
Support for centering images

Posting to JoeUser.com with Live Writer is simple. We have even created a quick start guide to walk you through getting LW set up.
