Any post you have published can be edited, and reposted, from within Qumana. Simply open the post, edit it, and click Publish. This will send an edit (not a new post) to your blog.

Draft posts are easy – Qumana offers a Save and a Publish function, unlike BlogHarbor/Blogware, where ‘Save’='Publish”.

I seem to recall checking out Zoundry ages ago and being frustrated by it for some reason or none.

Interesting about Live Writer. In Sydney last week I saw a demo by a Microsoft guy Frank Arrigo and it was v. impressive – also being able to draft posts from MS Word 2007 and post from there in ‘real’ HTML, i.e. no weird Word code.

Anyway, I moved over to Zoundry, which I found absolutely feature-rich, so I was happy … almost. Zoundry builds a local database, including the entire text of all your posts, categories, tags…etc. Initial dowload/index about an hour. But the worst part is that since Blogharbor regularly gives API timeouts, the client software often believes that the post did not go through, even when it did. Zoundry does not re-sync, you have to click and wait .. wait … wait.

Finally I moved to Windows Live Writer (what a name…) where I had almost all, except one: technorati tagging. However, with the Tag4Writer plug-in it’s the perfect solution

Haven’t used DropPad yet but I can see it could be very helpful.

To respond to your invitation about what I’d like to see:

Editing tool to be upgraded to:

- include font color

- not insert so many line breaks before and after blockquotes and – bulleted lists

-include scope for entering keywords

- include ability to use excerpts

Solve problem of my categories being identified in the upload phase

One thing you might not have noticed is that you can now post into the future and back into the past with Q now. Very slick, IMHO. And don’t forget the DropPad (it’s the box with the big Q). That’s where the magic happens. If you can’t see it, right-click on the taskbar icon and show DropPad. The DropPad lets you drop text, links, images onto it and have them ready for your post.

Now all the marketing aside, I’d like to hear your opinions and feedback on Q and what you’d like to see in future versions.
