Using MarsEdit

Since I fixed MetaWeblogAPI support in my blog for use with Flickr, I’ve also been experimenting with using a desktop tool for posting to my blog, namely MarsEdit, originally by recommendation from Adam Curry.

The verdict so far? I’m liking it. It’s nice to have a real editor, rather than the shoddy textarea that browsers insult you with—particularly Safari, which still doesn’t have multiple undo, and still tends to crash on me on certain occasions (like hitting shift-tab in a popup). Loosing a posting sucks.

I’ll keep you posted on whether I buy the app when my 30 days expire, but I’ve been buying a lot of software lately, so I wouldn’t be surprised if I bought this one, too.
