Blog Editors are a growing breed of software that allow you to type your blog post on your desktop even if you are not connected to the Internet. Blog editors also create an image of all your blog posts from the blog web site onto your personal computer. This means if you have a laptop and have an image of your blog website you review your posts offline while you are travelling.
Once you have typed a new post and then connect to the Internet the Blog editor "syncs" your personal computer blog image with the actual blog website -- saving you the hassel of working inside a web browser.
With a lot of hope I tested the Qumana Blog Editor version 3 on Windows XP. Though on face the product looked promising, I was unhappy with the results. I am showing a picture for my blog post on a new strategy for Apple Computer inc. as the Design Consultant to the Tech World.
