Your geekiness knows no bounds man. Also, I dispute your indirect assertion that you do now, or ever have, worn a tie.

Actually, I'm sure it supports way more blog services than they say... it supports both the Metaweblog API and the Movable Type API and between the two of those you should be covering a huge number of blog engines. I was pretty surprised, given the Live team's track record (Messenger and Windows Live Mail Desktop both have features that support Spaces only, instead of making it more generic and open) I figured it would be a Spaces only product.

It even supports two standards I don't even really know anything about, RSD (Really Simple Discoverability) and the newMediaObject API... great stuff. I think I'll add RSD support into my personal blog, and maybe support the newMediaObject API here on on10.net!

This does have some cool WYSIWYG features to it and does make it easy to format posts to your liking. It does not allow you to work with any plug-ins that you may have installed, but this probably could be coded as a plug-in for Live Writer and give bloggers the ability to control any plug-ins they may have on their blog. Plug-ins to control plug-ins!?! Does that make sense? The idea is sound though and I really like the concept. It is basically like having a word processor like MS Word to assist you in formatting posts for the web.

I can see how this would make general posting to a blog very easy and convenient. After spending a little time with it I was quite impressed with the feature set for the Beta release. The spell check, image formatting and Live Local features are a very nice touch in my opinion and I can see how I would be able to use this along with the additional publishing features of my blog to make posting a bit more convenient. I look forward to seeing what progress is made with this application in the future and what kind of plug-ins for specific types of blogs; Wordpress, Blogger, etc. are developed to work with Live Writer.

I'm a big fan of the Flickr one and I think I'll try my hand and writing one of my own tonight!
