ecto

So I’m trying out this new program called “ecto” (available on OS X and Windows, it should be obvious which one I’m using). It’s pretty much a blogging client; you know, type what you want to post, click the “publish” button. It’s got a few nifty features, like a WYSIWIG editor, and support for the “excerpt” feature. It’s pretty sweet so far, although I really dislike the stupid drawer on the main window; I only have one weblog that I post to, and don’t need to see the full account list.

But anyway, it’s a 15-day trial, so I may as well use it for a while to see if it’s useful enough to me to buy (or if I’ll just switch back to WordPress’ default posting page instead).

One kinda nifty feature: it has this “iTunes” button in the toolbar. When I click it, it does this:
Race To Old New York from the album “Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack” by Final Fantasy
Which is pretty sweet, if I cared what other people thought of what I listen to.

Meh. I’ll decide some time before the end of the trial if it’s worth it. But given the frequency of my updates, it’s fighting an uphill battle already.
