WOW! Following my last post on Blogging with Microsoft Word 2007 I have to admit that I did not anticipate that they actually portet WORDART too… OMG that is just evil…

Well ok that was pretty evil :D

I am not sure how to categorize this, but Microsoft word 2007 has a very cool interface for blogging.

Basically you can type and work with text as you would any other document, and then you just publish to WordPress or whatever provider you might use

I personally think this is great. I usually write in the ordinary wordpress backend:

I think the real advantages are:

  • A real spell checker
  • Very easy to work with pictures (I really do prefer to be able to just cut-and-paste – There I also the simple drop shadow effect as seen in this post)
  • General ability to work with blog posts as you would work with any other document.

Basically, I like writing my blog posts the same way I write all the other text I write, and despite googledocs, I still feel that word is the best document writing tool.

An example:


Smart Art


And then insert it =)

Video will have to go in via the old interface though!

Anyway, if you have word 2007 and you blog give it a try. I don’t think you will be disappointed. I know I wasn’t!
