Blogger for Word

O.K.  This is pretty cool.

Eric should go to www.blogger.com and download “Blogger for Word” at this link:

http://buzz.blogger.com/bloggerforword.html  

Blogger for Word is a free add-in that makes it a snap to edit and post to a blog from Word.  When you install the program it adds a new menu into Word.  The menu items include:

Blogger Settings;  start here to tell the program your blog sign-on.

Open Post:  This is a real cool feature.  You can grab a post straight from your blog in order to edit it.  A drop down menu lets you choose what blog you want, and another lets you pick out which post to edit inside Word.

Save as Draft:  If you don’t want to post right away.

Publish:  Gives you the option of either Updating an existing post or Creating a New Post.

This is a really useful tool for playing with Blogger.
