Blog, the tool I use to edit and manage this weblog, recently graduated to version 6.0. Without evangelizing too much, this version now does everything Blogger can do, with new features allowing multiple and/or remote authors (community blog, blog from work, etc). One thing it has that Blogger doesn’t: in-line spell check that works. A few things it lacks: load times, downtime, deluged developers — in fact, all but one of the suggestions or wishes I’ve ever made to Fahim, the developer, has ended up in a release version. The one is because I only fired off the suggestion this morning. Another thing it currently lacks, sadly, is platform portability. But if you’re on Windows and are looking for an alternative, you really should at least try it out. Thus endeth the pledge drive.
