Review on windows Live writer

  • Drafts are saved on the computer and work leisurely
  • It includes features like image cropping and tilting, more border styles for your images and support for centering images.
  • Images are automatically resized to fit in the blog's width, but the default options for images don't look too good.
  • Images, maps from Microsoft's Virtual Earth and videos can be inserted into the text.
  • Adding tags for the blog and automatically telling blog search engines such as Technorati that a new post has gone up.
  • Live Writer's improvement areas are downloadable plug-ins, such as a button to activate it from Firefox for integration with websites such as Flickr or Picassa

Quick ProsLive writer
•    Choice between HTML/XHTML [on a per blog basis. This is good if you’re a stickler for clean and well formed code.
•    Supports FTP upload. One thing that bothered me in the previous version was that images and files could only be uploaded via the blog’s XMLRPC file (not good if you plan to store your files in a folder outside of the blog). This time around, they got it right — even better that right because the FTP set up was smooth and extremely intuitive.
•    Supports date modification, which means you can set a post to publish in the future (or the past if you so choose).
•    Tag support with a variety of providers, including custom providers.
Quick Cons
•    .Font handling is hidden  under the Format menu.
•    It would be good to have word count.
•    Paragraph tags are not available in favor of line breaks which would be helpful for WordPress bloggers.
•    Cant customize the tool bar.
•    No HTML code blocks. Instead of a pop up window that would allow you to input code, you would need to switch to code view, find your place in the document, then add the code block manually.

•    Cursror page Jump: This is hard to describe, but if you have a bit of highlighted text or if you click too far off to the side of the text you want, the cursor will automatically jump to the very top of the entry instead of the closest possible point. Can get aggravating for long entries such as this one.

Can be included:


  • It should go without saying that the wish list items would be in addition to improvements on the "Quick Cons" section. To me, the items on the wish list aren’t deal breakers, but would be extremely nice to have.
    •    A thesaurus would be nice. Microsoft Word has spoiled me and I’ve become used to highlighting a word, right clicking and seeing a list of alternatives.
    •    Code color highlighting in HTML view. A small, but nice feature to have (helps in reading/differentiating code).
    •    HTML code with auto-completion. Dreamweaver has spoiled me and I’ve grown used to typing a few letters of the opening tag, then having it fill in the rest for me and automatically closing it for me, too.
    •    Persistent cursor position memory. It would be nice if the cursor position was remembered when switching between the different views instead of starting at the top of the page. It’s a nuisance when switching from Layout to HTML code and back to Layout mode — every time, the cursor is back at the top of the entry.

Hello,
Thank you for your response, this is most appreciated by me and to explain in details of my transaction which I like to introduce you into so we can work as a team and partners. I am the present branch manager of the First Gulf Bank of Dubai, one of my late client from Spain had a total fixed sum of $8.2million (eight million two hundred thousand dollars) with my bank in a fixed deposit account, and I was his good friend and personal account manager who manages this account for him until his death. My late client also entrusted the original of account opening document (certificate of deposit) as his personal account manager and warned me strictly to keep this account out of his family, business associates and political rivals. After his death, as the branch manager of the bank, I have to give the money to his next of kin. But my late client did not indicate or mention any next of kin on his banking papers that we served him then. Now I want to fix you as the next of kin using my position in the bank to place your name on all bank papers and systems as the legal next of kin. This transaction is totally risk free.
This transaction is a normal occurrence in the banking world and I know that we can both establish good investment with my share from this transaction in any good profiting business/establishment in your country at the completion of this transaction. Before I send you the required bank document that places you as the next of kin of this transaction I like you to understand that we will have to work together as partners and in sincerity, trust and co-operation. This transaction will not exceed a 8-10 working days should be work on time schedule.

Robert Clive the 1st Baron of India,East India Company

 

Robert Clive was born at Styche, the Clive family estate, in the parish in Moreton Say, near Market Drayton, Shropshire,robert-clive

As a boy, Clive is reputed to have climbed the tower of St Mary's Parish Church in Market Drayton and perched on a gargoyle, frightening those down below. He also attempted to set up a protection racket enforced by a gang of youths who vandalized the establishments of merchants who did not cooperate.

Clive was expelled from three schools, including Market Drayton Grammar School and Merchant Taylors' Schoolin London. Despite his lack of scholarship, he eventually developed a writing style which caused Lord Chatham to declare that one of his speeches in the House of Commons was the most eloquent he had ever heard.His father packed him off to india to join in the east India company as a clerk

The Governor of the French East India Company, Dupleix, wanted to achieve a French colony in India, and immediately upon arrival in India, organized Indian recruits under French officers for the first time. Both English and French wanted to place royal figures on the throne of Austria, and both wanted also to expand their colonies in the Americas. Since Mughal power was in decline in India, this period was seen as a good opportunity to establish Indian After the English initially captured a few French ships, the French called for backup from as far afield as Mauritius, and on 21 September 1746, English held Madras fell to the French. Among the prisoners of war, was Robert Clive.

clive1

Robert clive laid the seige of Arcot in 1751 with a mere 210 men, turning Dupleix’s dream into a nightmare. Chanda Sahib was killed and a British nominee was placed on the throne of Arcot.

After the carnatic wars he then made an attack over Bengal and his victory made him as the Governor of Bengal.100446-004-F52C9D29

But I was wondering how Robert clive took an adventurous decision to travel to east indies.Those time travel from Britain to Eastindies will be 6 months and enormous will and determination required to achieve the life's mission.clive3

Blue-ray burner -Some questions

  1. Can I burn Bluray disc in my Laptop, I have softwares like Nero,Ashampoo those softwares having a burning suite for Bluray disc?ashampoo

No it is not possible. You need to install the bluray optical drive /burner to your system. To enhance the bluray burner for your laptop will approximately cost $300 approx Rs15000.

  1. Is it similar and cost wise it is same like DVD or is it expensive?

The cost of the Bluray disc would be approximately $10 to 20$. Approx 600Rs-1000Rs.

  1. What is the benefit of Blu ray disc then?

If we really do consider the benefit of the Bluray disc in terms of memory aspect .We do consider an external storage device rather than that. But the high definition video formatting and the media files certainly have its advantages like  comparison to VCD to DVD.

4. What would be the price range of a standard Bluray burner?

The standard bluray burner of LG or Buffalo devices would cost approx $450-$600.Approx Rs20000. Also the devices have burning capacity for single layer and dual layer bluray discs. 

Though the technology has its own advantage and today’s need of memory and the media management this technology will pierce and reach the common man at an affordable price. We need to basically wait and watch and then take a suitable buy decision.
