trying out ectoTrying to post from Ecto to my blog. I love the idea of being able to blog offline and just upload. Although i have a feeling that this might also encourage me to revert to writing more semi-personal entries… It reminds me so much of my LJ days. Hmm… Is that a good thing? 3 comments to trying out ecto |

Ecto’s great! I had dismissed it for quite a while, thinking why in the world I would want to deal with yet another app? Now I never want to go back. I’ve added some html tags that I use frequently to the dropdown and customized the preferences for images…sweet. Now I wish it could also deal with MT templates and CSS…
server down, zephorian solution
My blog server was down just at the moment I had a moment to begin to catch up on posts. But then zephoria reports on code that I knew had to exist but that I had not yet seen:
I think I like the fact that your blog is not so personal. I’m not familiar with your LJ days, so I don’t have anything to compare it to, but I will admit that every time I read your blog it makes me wish mine wasn’t so personal. I mean, who wants to hear how much belly button lint I mined while watching the latest on my netflix queue? (You’d be surprised… I could make a sweater I think)
Then again, perhaps your personal life is more interesting than mine.
