I absolutely love using Windows Live Writer to do all my blogging work. I think it’s a great tool, with loads of features and flexibility. After finding and downloading a number of additional plug-ins, I like it even more.
I’ve got a small little issue though. Something happened recently where the labels on my categories […]

Playing around a little bit with the SkyDrive service that’s part of the Windows Live suite. I think this is a good idea, but it needs a few things immediately for me to really think of it as an everyday option for usefulness.
Absolutely need to increase storage size up from 1GB. I’ve got a […]

Why in the world it’s taken me this long to search for, download and install some additional plug-ins for LiveWriter; I have no clue.
As you can see from the images above, I downloaded quite a few files that I’ve now installed and can use with Windows Live Writer.
I’m sure you’ll be seeing the results […]

Not too long ago I wrote about downloading and installing the Microsoft Office Outlook Connector to begin managing my Hotmail account with Outlook on my laptop. Something significant has happened since I started doing that, I’ve barely gotten ANY spam into my account.
It appears that it’s not even hitting Outlook at all because my Junk […]

I know it’s not something that other blog writing tools don’t have, but I just tried the “Blog This” feature in Internet Explorer 7 that’s available since I have Windows LiveWriter installed.
It makes it super-easy to add something to one of my WordPress blogs from a website I’m reading. Since all the blogs I manage […]

Would you like to manage your Hotmail or Windows Live Mail account with your installation of Outlook on your computer?
Honestly, my Hotmail account is one I don’t use much anymore because of all the spam I get in the process. It’s now become the address I use on websites when I have to provide an […]

I just logged into my Yahoo e-mail account and saw this message. Looks like Yahoo! and Microsoft are playing nicely together now.
That’s a pretty interesting development. Does that mean I can now see my Yahoo contacts in Hotmail and Live Mail? Not that I’ve seen so far.
Is the walled garden of instant messaging clients […]

An article by Dana Blankenhorn on ZDNet.com has an interesting question she’s posing. At least I think this is a question she’s posing. Her article actually states that Microsoft should be afraid of open-source software, but I’m not sure that’s actually the case.
What they may need to be concerned with is a change in the […]

A huge Thanks to Joe Cheng who shared a solution for a problem I was having with Windows Live Writer.
I followed his advice; downloaded and reinstalled IE7. After quite a lengthy uninstall and reinstall process, although it pretty much ran itself completely, everything is back up and running and all fresh and ready to explore.
But […]

I thought for sure I had posted about this error I was receiving when trying to use Windows Live Writer, but I couldn’t find anything in my previous posts. If I’ve overlooked it, I apologize, but as it’s still bothering me and I’d like a solution I’ll write about it again anyway.
Is anyone else seeing […]
