testing yet another blogging tool

Because of challenges with Qumana, I have installed BlogJet.

I’ll let you know how I get on…

1 Fred Zelders 04.12.06 at 3:17 am: Good Choice. I always liked BlogJet.
Since I am a Switcher I can’t use BlogJet anymore.
THAT’s a pitty
2 Lee 04.12.06 at 7:25 am: G’day Fred — thanks for the comments on Blogjet - I am really liking it.

So, What’s a ’switcher’ and why can’t you use Blogjet with it? Have you turned to the ‘Dark Side’ and started using macs???
3 Dave 04.12.06 at 5:58 pm: One of the joys of BlogJet is its simplicity - it simply does everything you want it to, without too much fuss.

I have found, though, that using the WordPress built in editor is a much more pleasant, and easy-on-the-eye, experience, when you have the Tiger Admin plug-in installed (and are using FireFox!).
4 Fred Zelders 04.12.06 at 6:48 pm: @Lee: You’re right! I’m a Switcher because I switched from Windows to Mac 2 months ago. I should have done that many years before. What a joy!
So … I’ve not turned to the ‘Dark Side’ but to the ‘Bright Side’.

BlogJet is Windows only.
5 Lee 04.13.06 at 3:50 pm: what’s so nice about macs, fred? genuinely curious…
6 Fred Zelders 04.14.06 at 9:48 pm: I LIKE Mac because now I’m released now from doing maintenance on the system all the time, I’m released from crashes, I’m released from virusses, I’m released from installig the many updates for the various programs I had to buy from many different vendors, etc.
Using the Mac I feel like I only spent time on USING the computer in stead of spending time on MAINTAINing the thing.
7 Lee 04.20.06 at 7:12 am: I understand, Fred. Constant updates are a pain in the …

Now that apple have released an XP bit of software (allows you to load and run WinXP on a mac - because of the intel chip - as well as mac’s OS) will the requirement for constantly updating mac software start to happen, do you think?
