I am creating this post using a desktop application created-ish by MS (actually, it was developed by a company called Onfolio that MS acquired in Feb 06).  It will allow you to blog to various blogging platforms. From TechCrunch,

… support for most blogging platforms (Windows Live Spaces, Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, WordPress and others) …

You can read about the the “official” launch post, or you can view the blog of one of the developers or just download the application.

So far, I like it.  One thing that I’m not sure how to specify is how to assign categories to your post, something that is essential to blogging.  I’m also wondering if this is going to crosspost to my Vox, LiveJournal and Blogger accounts?  I suppose I shall see in just a moment!

EDIT: The post was crossposted to LiveJournal but not to Blogger or Vox.  Looks like I need to figure out what is going on and edit those plugins!  Also, I found where the categories were hidden…in the upper right hand corner of the screen, sneaky bastards hid them in plain sight!
