Live
Writer is a new application designed to create blog posts for Live Spaces
and a number of other services. Appearing like a slimmed down version of
Microsoft Word, the tool is available free of charge.

Users can author blog posts in a WYSIWYG environment that makes editing easy
and shows exactly how the post will look when published. An HTML source code
editing mode is included for more advanced users, as well as a Web preview
option.

Photo publishing has been integrated into Windows Live Writer, enabling users
to quickly add an image to their blog post and modify it with the application’s
built-in tools. Size, text wrapping, borders can be edited, and a variety of
graphical effects are also available.

Microsoft has additionally including mapping support with Live Writer. Users
can insert a Windows Live Local map directly into their post, and customize it
to show road, aerial or bird’s eye detail. Pushpins can also be added to
highlight a specific point.

The application currently supports Microsoft’s own Windows Live Spaces
blogging service, in addition to Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, WordPress and
others. Support for RSD (Really Simple Discoverability), the Metaweblog API, and
the Movable Type API are also included.
