ScribeFire — Fireup your blogging

Posted on | April 14, 2008 |

Recently I made post on windows live writer. Since then I felt
little uneasy as I have not wrote any post on ScribeFire.. a simple,
efficient and feature rich blogging tool that was helping me for long.

ScribeFire is a Firefox extension. Unlike the blogging tool in Flock,
its much simpler and lightweight though heavy in options. You can
have the installer from here.

Having installed it you will find a little icon on the right of the status bar
of your FF browser:

Usually people feels to start writing a blog post when
they come across something interesting on the web, or a solution or
when they created something to share. In most cases it is initiated
by web. If see something on the web and like to share with all,
just press f8 and scribefire will slide to blog the page !

It really comes with some handy shortcuts which can be found here.

Take a look at the nice scribefire panel:

Middle panel is the editor, nothing more to say about it. But I like the
image addition features most. Unlike most of other blog tool scribefire
does not only provide image inserting by url but also from your
computer !!

The left panel contains the overall settings for scribefire. See the
options:
scribefire-left-panel 
The right panel offers blog related settings like adding a blog,enter
trackback URL, manage entries,categories etc. Interesting is that, I can
also edit my WordPress static pages from here !!

Finally just to say, if you are not windows fan or tired of trying various
blog tools orrr have not yet tried any…. I would suggest just try scribefire!

Blogging will be more fun and easy !!

cheers.
