ScribeFire gives me the cloud based blogging I was looking for, but it's not near as pretty as Windows LiveWriter. But Microsoft, as usual, doesn't seem to understand what I need. We never seem to be on the same page. There is no built in way to store your blog posts in the cloud, which means it's no good for me. There is not even a built in way to sync your posts. I'm not really a fan of syncing anyway, so I'm not interested in the work around I could use to sync posts across all my computers. Would have been nice if they would have just let me store my posts in Sky Drive.
So ScribeFire is very basic, which I'm not opposed to, but it's a little too basic. It looks crappy. But since it's a Chrome plugin I assume it will be available in another Chrome browser? How will it know who I am? Or will I have to give my blog credentials every time I want t blog?
Let's see how well it handles pictures.
Ok - it doesn't allow you to upload pictures. You can only insert pictures from the web. No good.
I don't see a "preview" function either. It says I can "save progress" but I'm not sure if that saves it as a draft or not. I'm just going to publish and see what we get, but in the end the inability to upload photos kind of kills this one.
