This is a test using Windows Live Writer using the SubText provider

Hi, this is just a test of using the Windows Live Writer editor using the SubText provider which was automatically detected during the configuration of my blog within Windows Live Writer.

So far I am liking this a lot - it is a lot nicer to use than the standard web editor. This tool includes nice features such as a spelling checker and it is very easy to insert images as you can see from below.

Note: This is not a picture that I took!

I like this a lot - why did it take me so long to start to use it!

see http://get.live.com/betas/writer_betas and for plug-ins see http://gallery.live.com/results.aspx?c=0&bt=9&pl=8&st=5

Note: This tool is still in Beta

Operating system
Microsoft Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista

Note: I read on Peter Jones blog that it does not work with Windows 2003 Server.

"why did it take me so long to start to use it!" um, because you didn't believe the hype when every body else said it was great?

Well I had the hype this morning, but when I got to work I got the dreaded not supported on this Operating System message when trying to install.

I use Windows Vista " You know the supported Operating System " but I was running the 64 bit version " You know the version no one supports including Microsoft "

I found a site using google who has a MSI file that you can download and it will install on x64 and also on Windows 2003 Server.
