somehow not really used to
blogging from built-in editor from Blogger.com
as I have been using Windows Live Writer
for the past.... at least 5 years?
since yesterday
the first reaction was
of course, a little worried
then went online and took a look
"you-are-not-alone" that kind of case
keep me at ease
feeling assured that
so it wasn't my problem
obviously Windows Live Writer
despite being really blogger-friendly
for this really small group of users like me
it has not been updated
in other words
abandoned by Windows since 2012
doesn't matter if it has not been updated
yet it is just as reliable
until yesterday
so what happened was
2 days ago
Windows have officially made
Windows Live Writer open-source
as far as I understand
that means it is no longer under Windows
but an open freeware
(used to be a freeware too)
run and managed by a group of
non-profit folks
currently known as Open Live Writer
Dot Net Foundation: Open Live Writer
okay so I move on to download a copy from
yet...
I can't even manage to
enter the program itself
stuck downright outside
during the configuration process
went on the Forum
other folks complained about that too
again, that put me at ease at
Git Hub forum: No connection possible with Blogger?
some authentication issue
between Open Live Writer and Blogger
and someone is actually fixing it
Convert Google Blogger ClientLogin to OAuth 2.0
used to experience this with
Windows Live Writer too
but it was soon resolved
back in May
Blogger Fix: Blogging Tool Block
rawrrr..
so its' a Catch-22 situation
the old version is no longer available
yet the new version is not ready
till then
can only hang around
drafting in Windows Live Writer
wanna update a few really
delicious Wang Kai shoot actually
those will have to wait for now
biggest addiction ever!!
