If you are a blogger

This is really amazing, How Microsoft did it right this time, with Microsoft Windows Live Writer, you can blog on whatever blog provider you like using a good looking client application, which means saving drafts, spell checking, blog offline, customizations as you like, and also the best part is the Plugins, you can find a lot of plugins in windows live catalog.

So if you are a geek blogger you will love the Code Highlighting extension, that converts automatically your codes to formatted HTML with all the keywords coloring and line numbering.

It was a good experience I really like it.

Seams a very good tool, i will use it for sure, i am testing now :)
Just something strange not related to the writer its self:
I opened the link you wrote in you post http://get.live.com/betas/writer_betas

Using Firefox, it opened windows live home page which i can't find how to download the writer from.
But when i opened the same link using IE7 it opened the right page which i can find in how to try the writer.
Its Firefox problem, Microsoft issue or my machine problem (i will test later on another machine)?

By the way, thanks for the great tool :)).

@Amr
I think it is Microsoft problem that it doesn't work fine with FF.
