Windows Live Writer

I read about this piece of software and thought that I would give it a try.
So here it is, the sample post created and posted from Windows Live Writer!

UPDATED: Sorry, I realized that I forgot to post the info on this software. :( I will also have this is a backup file account soon (just in case).
