Major update to Red Sweater Software’s excellent desktop weblog editor. Performance, compatibility, the user interface. I don’t think there’s any aspect of MarsEdit 2.0 that hasn’t been improved from version 1. Plus there are new features like Flickr integration.
John has been using the 2.0 betas to write Daring Fireball for months — and I’m using it to post this from first seeing it in NetNewsWire.
I do wish there was better support for tagging in WordPress but the latest SVN releases don’t even having categories anymore, just tags. Therefore, in the future it won’t be a problem.
What I particularly like is the image uploading features and Flickr integration. No more saving an image to my desktop and then uploading it via the WordPress web administration panel — now I just drag it over and insert it in the post.
I like the idea of not having to log in to the web interface to update things. I do need to work on customization and setting up some post templates and whatnot to really streamline it.
