Blogging From Google Docs
So I haven’t been blogging for a while because there’s been a couple of restrictions.
First, I haven’t had time.
Second I was primarily using Word 2007 to publish posts to my blogs, however since I started working onsite, I haven’t been able to use word 2007 to connect through the corporate firewall at the site I’m working at.
Today tho, I was playing with google docs and I noticed the "Publish" feature for documents. After a bit of digging I discovered that you could publish direct to my blog from google docs. This is great because it greatly reduces the friction that was created by not having access to publish blogs from word 2007.![]()
Publishing pictures is still going to be slightly annoying tho, because I used to just create screen shots and paste them straight into word, where as now I’ll have to save the images then upload them, but it’s still infinitely easier than using the annoying editor in wordpress.
Hopefully in the long term tho, it’ll mean an increase in blog posts.
