Just wondering, will there be any desktop blogging client by Google?
Currently I am using BlogDesk as my desktop blogging client. All the article writing process, editing, are all done in BlogDesk. It is very light and can handles many domains and blog platforms.
Microsoft already have their desktop blogging client called, Windows Live Writer . I tried it once before but it is not very good like BlogDesk.
I have many applications and software installed in my computer. But the problem is, I do not know when a new version of the software comes in and where can I get them. To check the software updates one by one, and go to their website would be very time consuming.
Luckily I found a very nice tool, FileHippo.com Update Checker. This tool will scan your computer for installed software, check the versions and then send the information to FileHippo.com to see if there are any newer version have been releases. The result will be displayed in your browser with the download links. Easy right?

Previously I use EditPlus to code my WordPress themes. The coding process was a lot easier than using Notepad because I can do the undo process up to multiple levels, it supports syntax highlighting and also it will automatically backup the file whenever you click the Save button.
However after I found out about Notepad++, I fall in love with it. Notepad++ is a freeware text editor which I can say, it is the best Notepad replacement that supports several programming languages and also a good competitor to EditPlus. Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size.
