Testing BlogJet

I have installed an interesting application – BlogJet. It’s a cool Windows client for my blog tool (as well as for other tools). Get your copy here: http://blogjet.com

I caught the tip from Gia Lyons “About” page, hadn’t heard of the tool before, so thought I’d check it out given my issues installing Windows Live Writer.

Disappointed that it is a 30 day trial, the full version is €29.95. I will give it a try and let you know what I think before splashing out!

Just for posterity

I just updated my about page, and cut this section out, as it didn’t feel relevant anymore, though I thought it’d be nice to keep as a reminder of why this all started!

Objectives

The main aim of this blog – apart from finally registering my domain name – is to give me some focus in my thoughts and opinions on what I see, hear and read relating to the IT industry generally, and my areas of special interest in particular. I enjoy writing, but am largely out of practice and it is something I would like to improve.

I don’t pretend to gain much of a voice, particularly as part of the vocal Lotus blogging community, where I have been a long-time lurker. I have gained much from the incredible depth and breadth of experience to be found out there, and while it would be nice to be able to give something back one day, I’m making no promises!
