…go there…
Doesn’t have a whole lot to do directly with location scouting, but looks incredibly useful as a writing tool.
If you are a busy location scout but also like blogging about what you do, sometimes it gets tedious stopping in the middle of whatever you are working on to navigate to your blog / logging in / navigating to the admin panel / navigating to the editor / only then writing / editing / publishing that little gem of wisdom you hoped “would only take a minute…” 
What’s “different” about the WriteToMyBlog application is it’s web-based, as opposed to being software you have to install and run locally or a browser addon, therefore relieving one’s self the annoyance of additional desktop clutter and memory / CPU usage.
I could take or leave the built-in TinyMCE editor, one thing I actually really like about WordPress’s post / page editor is the plain-text / code editor - it’s just the extra 2-3 clicks then waiting for my server to load everything up to get to it when I am in a hurry that gets frustrating sometimes.
So here goes my first post using WriteToMyBlog…
Post-blog-posting analysis:
- …that was pretty painless. interestingly, WriteToMyBlog uses Technorati tags - I still have to add in my own site tags
- nothing was tweeted to Twitter - but that is probably a bug of the Twitter Updater - if you can call it a bug - del.icio.us’s daily links postings never get tweeted either.
And then, sometimes, we don’t always “see the forest for the trees” - umm, I just bookmarked the “new post page” at nyc.locationscout.us …duh…
…now back to our regularly-scheduled programming…
