I got a copy of Office 2007 through work and, the other day, I found that I can post to my blog through it. Cool or what? Just start a new document, say it’s a blog and type away. I’m not sure how much formatting you can do – but I’m sure I’ll try. Then when you’ve finished, just hit the Publish button on the new Office ribbon and off she goes. Job done.
The blog is posted to WordPress without categories so it doesn’t show up on my site (which is running the Front Page Excluded Categories plug-in) so I then got to my blog site and set the categories up for the new entry and that’s it.
Actually I’ve just found that I can insert a category even, so I just added those now and then when I publish this message it should be properly categorised on my blog. This time is published as draft and sure enough it’s there in WordPress ready for me to approve.
I do like WordPress, but the editor left a lot to be desired. Now I can use Word (which arguably is a better editor – though that’s a debate that could run for months)
