Blogging with Word 2007

Microsoft released Office 2007 today. I highly recommend it – due to the “Fluent” ribbon-based interface, Office 2007 is excellent. A real pleasure to use.

Word 2007, among other things, allows you to seamlessly post to blogs. It’s what I’m using now – and intend to use for the foreseeable future.

It allows you to use the same tool for all writing purposes. And, frankly, Word 2007 is leagues better than any other blogging tool on the market. Consider spell-check: not only is Word 2007 excellent at spell-checking words, it watches for grammar and words incorrect based on context (e.g. loose vs. lose). It also has fantastic image manipulation abilities, and uploads them automatically so there’s no need to deal with finicky FTP programs and URLs.

For example, take a look at some of the image effects applied to a thumbnail of my resume:

Nice!
