New Technology

I've never been one to shrink from the possibility of using a bit of new technology. I think most writers are like that. We have enquiring minds.

While removing an unwanted program from my laptop computer, I discovered something called "Windows Live Writer".

Call me old. Call me dumb. Call me blond. Whatever! But I didn't know this existed. So I activated it, entered all the info it asked for, and now... here I am, blogging away without actually going to my blog. Great stuff.

I was excited to find Ping so I could Plurk and Twitter at the same time. "Ya gotta luv that!"

I used to blog directly from Word, but I'm not sure that the new version does that, or that it's available in Vista. I'll have to check that out.

As most people know, I'm a shocker for blogging when I should be writing, and the opportunity to blog right from my word processor is irresistible.

Live Writer will compensate me for that loss. I do so love a new gadget.

I may be getting older, but I'm no technophobe. I can only imagine that, eventually, when they're dragging me away to live in the nursing home, I'll be screaming: "Not without my computer! I must blog regularly every day...!"

Yes, I'll be blogging until the day I die.

Cheers
