“Blog publishing on your desktop”

by Cyril Roger

MarsEdit lets you publish blog posts from your desktop, which, if you work on multiple blogs simultaneously, is probably much easier.

The first time you start up MarsEdit you'll be asked which Content Management System (CMS) you use. MarsEdit handles most of the popular blog publishing services like Wordpress, TypePad or Drupal. Adding accounts is really quick and you can quickly browse through them from the left side panel.

MarsEdit has a very simplified interface which lets you really focus on your post. When editing, apart from writing, you'll be able to enter what you normally do in your CMS such as adding categories, author and post date. MarsEdit also handles well the integration of media files. You can post videos, audio clips and images very easily. If you have a Flickr account the program will also allow you to scan your library for pictures.

MarsEdit comes with a few extra scripts that offer specific features. The list is limited to less than a dozen, but you can always add more if you know of a good place that offers AppleScripts for MarsEdit.

If you're looking for a no-fuss desktop blog publishing tool, then MarsEdit is exactly what need. Simple, efficient and enjoyable to use.
