My blog runs on dasBlog version 2.x and when I started blogging I did all my typing online. Then Office 2007 came along and Word offered the feature of creating a blog entry offline and then upload it to dasBlog using the MovableType API.
This wasn't too great though, since Word markup would end up in the HTML and sometimes the publish process just froze or refused to logon to my web site. Also, uploading pictures was kind of a hack.
Last week I installed Windows Live Writer and this runs as a charm. Definitely a recommendation!
