w.bloggar: Not dead after all.
After more than a year of silence, a new version of ace desktop-blogging tool w.bloggar has been released. This is good - it's an awesome piece of software - but I will confess to a touch of schadenfreude at the thought that it had been abandoned, it being competition for Poster. The much delayed 0.1 release of Poster is waiting on the wings, with just a few wee things to tidy up before I unleash it upon the world. I know I've been talking about it for a long time, but there just aren't enough hours in the day for me, to be quite honest. Not when Princess Zelda's gone and gotten herself kidnapped again. Also: I am extremely lazy.
Naturally w.bloggar 4.01 craps all over Poster 0.1 in terms of functionality, and I am concerned that, at first, my application might seem like a feature-poor cross-platform clone. Future versions, however, will see it evolve in its own direction, and the first release is more about providing a stable platform on which to build.
In other software-related news, there's a new version of the official del.icio.us plugin for Firefox. Well, I say new, I think it's actually been available for months, and I've only just noticed. It's all kinds of excellent, anyway, and lets me do away with foxylicious.
