Julia’s blogroll update gave me the idea to draw small 80×15 buttons for those of you who’d prefer to link here with images rather than text – round or angular, take what you prefer:
For my own blogroll, I’ll stick with pure text links, though, and use buttons only for blog directories and similar things (in the footer).
This is about a German blog parade about blog editors. Anyone really need a translation?
Die Prinzzess wüsste gern, mit welchem Editor man so seine geistigen Ergüsse zu Papier Blog bringt… ihre Fragen im Einzelnen:
Ich hatte mir kürzlich auch mal Microsofts Windows Live Writer angesehen – funktionierte soweit, aber der HTML-Code (wenn man denn mal schnell was nachbearbeiten will) ist unübersichtlicher, er scheint an manchen Stellen nicht so perfekt mit der Zweisprachigkeit meines Blogs zu harmonieren (v.a. bei den Tags), und er unterstützt z.B. die benutzerdefinierten Felder von WordPress, in denen meine musikalischen Zitate stecken (passt dieses hier – vom Song-Titel her – heute nicht besonders gut? 
), nicht. Was natürlich bedeutet, dass ich doch wieder den internen Editor bemühen muss, also kann ich (trotz WYSIWYG-Editor) gleich auf den Live Writer verzichten…

Update 25 Nov: I thought the snow could cast some shadow onto the blue bar…
At the bottom of the sidebar on the right hand side, there are also a few candles.

No, not the TV series, but comment spam caught by Akismet:
…another statistic that no-one needs. 
And at the same time, this was first test for Windows Live Writer that I’m trying to use to write this post…
…which seems to have worked okay – only the custom fields of WordPress in which I store the music quotes are apparently not supported, and the tagging (“Keywords” in Live Writer) seems a bit uncomfortable. And is there even a way to edit already published posts?
The HTML code, at any rate, is not so nicely readable as handwritten code; and why is there style="border-top-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" in every <img> tag?
