Scribe Fire - An excellent Blogging Tool

I am a die hard fan of Firefox. This is my favorite browser. Well why not something else; because not only it is safe, secure and fast but also it provides innumerable option to customize with plugins, themes and add-ons.
Well the post is not about Firefox but about ScribeFire yet another excellent addon for Firefox. This add-on is a offline as well as online blog posting tool, similar to Windows Live Writer or so.
Next question comes to mind, whats different from Windows Live writer. I have listed few features which I find as the key points for this addon:-
  1. Not a separate software: This is not a separate software. It works direclty from Firefox, no installation issues, not .NET framework requirement and so on
  2. Light Weight: This add on is extremely light weight both on browser as well as whole PC
  3. OS independent: IT will run in Linux, Windows, Mac or any other OS. No problems if you use some obscure OS which self brewed by you. If firefox works for you, it will also work
  4. Multi-tab windows: you are allowed to open multiple tabs and write different blog entries for different blog.
  5. Support host of blog services:  Few of the major supported blog services are WordPress,Movable Type, Drupal, Blogger  and many more.
  6. Enable Pinging: option to enable Pinging to various blog linking services, Technorati and so on.
  7. Save draft: Allows to save multiple dafts of post for future posting.
  8. Editing Old post: You can also edit old posts published, option to edit categories and many others. 

This may be sufficient to justify ScribeFire as an excellent Blog Posting software. Just go ahead and try it. You can get it here.

Enjoy and Happy Blogging
