Windows Live writer!

I stumbled upon some forums regarding Windows Live writer – a desktop blogging tool.  All the people who talked about this gave a huge thumbs up to this tool – some of them were from the Apple/Mac group!! A Microsoft tool being endorsed by Apple group?? you have to get it…

The first impressions seem good, enough to make me continue with this.
