I have found a cool little desktop application that simplifies writing and styling blog posts called Windows Live Writer. And it won’t cost you a penny.

Easily style your images with techniques usually reserved for tech savvy Photoshop experts when you use the simple, intuitive image editing tools provided by Live Writer to add images or full albums.

Add photo frames, reflections, or borders. Tilt, rotate, crop or add a watermark . Only your imagination will limit what you can do.

Never has it been so easy to look like a pro.

Instantly post videos to YouTube or SoapBox. Insert tables and maps. Schedule blog posts.

The one downside? You’ll spend too much time playing with all the features and not enough time writing. :)

This is a Windows program, but it works seemlessly with my iMac using VMFusion. Have fun!
