Question, with Windows Live Editor…let’s say you make a post, are the features there for the seo tags? Or do I have to login to WP and edit them there?

I have been using Scribefire and Blogjet. I tried few FREE blogging editors but was unsatisfied.

For a FREE addon on mozilla Scribefire is undoubtedly the best. In fact I highly recommend it. This addon updates quite frequently keeping up with recent changes (much props to their team).

As far as blogjet is concerned, I like its clean look

@ Nina @ Robin @ Willem @ bhatnaturally: Thank you all for your very valuable input. I love it when users give feedback on their favourite applications. It helps others to make up their own mind.

@ Michael: I also want to move to Mac one day, I will keep Ecto in my mind when I do this. Thank you for the mention.

@ Sharon: Thanks for the heads up on the future WordPress release. You had me worried there for a minute until I read Chris’s comment.

Good to know for sure.

@ Chris K: I’m glad you rectified this since I was worried there for a moment.

@ caschy: I appreciate your input. I know there are several more to be considered but I wanted to keep the list manageable.

Anyway, BlogDesk looks worth checking out for sure.

@ Jeffro2pt0: Thanks for giving us your feedback on Scribefire. It sounds like it has come a long way since they first released this tool last year I believe.

I have used both Windows Live Writer & Blogdesk (on Windows) and MarsEdit on the Mac. I find MarsEdit to be the best in terms of interface.

Lest we become too alarmed… That’s “disabled by default”, not to be confused with “gone forever!” If you have a need, just turn it back on.

I love scribefire, but it does not work on my Asus Eeepc because the screen is not wide enough.
Too bad there are no other Linux alternatives as far as I know of.
