Thanks for tip. I am on Win so got WLW. Also found BlogDesk which looks decent & lightweight. Will try out both.

Ask YC: Quick desktop blogging tool

Hey guys - can anyone recommend a tool/widget that quickly let's you post to a WP (.com) blog without logging in to the admin panel, etc (i.e., not using the browser)? Something like Twhirl but for blogging?

And btw, from what I have see so far YC seems to be a great place to launch. You get lots of early adopters who don't mind seeing a few broken links and are willing to give very pertinent feedback.

-Launch when your app is at a stage where it is usable with a minimal set of features then iterate on that 1st version based on your ideas and feedback from users

-On one hand: if you launch something too crude, no one will come back after their initial visit

-On the other hand: the more you wait until launching, the more you risk loosing on your investment.

-Imagine pouring money in a stock without ever seeing its performance/chart. That's what not having feedback would be like.
