Looking for some cool blog tools and applications to help you be a more productive?
Today Shankar Ganesh from Killer Tech Tips shares 7 to check out if you’re a Windows
based blogger.
PROBLOGGER SPONSORS
If you’re a blogger, you’ll be using a variety of applications that aid you in your daily
chores. Most of them will be web based, but I bet you’ll find the following desktop apps
indispensable once you install and start using them. Darren has already covered essential
Mac applications previously, so I’ll cover only Windows applications in this post.

1. Windows Live Writer

Windows Live Writer is, by a majority, the best desktop blogging client to date. Although
initial releases were buggy, the latest edition of Windows Live Writer is much more stable
and packs few features that might be really useful for all kinds of bloggers.

Besides letting you crop images, add watermarks and other effects, Windows Live Writer
also allows you to add and upload videos to YouTube directly. The power of Windows RECENT POSTS

Live Writer lies in its plugins that can be used to add extra functions to the app – for How to Go from 1 to 1,000,000 Users (or Readers)

instance, there’s a plugin called Twitter Notify that can be used to post your blog post What are Your Favorite 10 Blogging Tools?

Blogging is about pushing content frequently and consistently to your readers. Writing
Less than 3 Months
down ideas as you get them is very important for any blogger. Evernote is a cross
3 to 6 Months
platform application that lets you take notes. The best part of Evernote is that your notes
are accessible from virtually everywhere - your PC, your Mac, your iPhone, your Windows 6 to 9 Months

Mobile and even from the web. 9 to 12 Months

1 to 1.5 Years
You can clip web pages to your notes and save them for later reference. You can take 1.5 to 2 Years
screen captures and put them in your notes. You can even scan your blogger buddies’
2 to 3 Years
business cards and put them up on Evernote. All of them will be searchable.
3 to 4 Years

The free version gives you a space of 40 MB/month where as upgrading to a premium 4 to 5 Years

3. FeedDemon RSS Reader
PROBLOGGER SPONSORS

Although a lot of people use Google Reader these days, FeedDemon is a very feature-
rich RSS reader that deserves to be written about here. Once your really start using its
most powerful features, you’ll never want to be without it. When everything’s cloud these
days, why use it you ask?



FeedDemon is powerful: Because it can show you the most popular posts from the feeds
you’ve just subscribed (like a mini techmeme); you can create ‘watches’ to monitor
keywords - for instance, you can create a watch for ‘iPhone Apps’ and see all blog posts
that mention it separately; desktop alerts for unread items; integration with
aforementioned Windows Live Writer and a plethora of other features.

The upcoming release of FeedDemon will sync with Google Reader, meaning that you
can use both of them simultaneously. An item that you opened in Google Reader will also
be marked as read in FeedDemon. So you get the best of both worlds, why not switch?

4. Q10

I’ve mentioned Windows Live Writer above, but why this, you ask? Well, being on the
internet means getting carried around site by site. You realise you’ve wasted all your time
only when none’s left. Q10 aims at making your writing tasks distraction free and it
does that. What you get is a barebones writer like Windows Notepad that operates in full
screen mode. It offers no big features, but can just count the number of words you write
and spell check. Besides that, it’s portable. It overlaps everything else on your screen -
just type all that you have to and quit. Then start playing all that you wanted to on your
computer. Some people have told me that it has really improved their productivity - they
write 2-3 extra articles than they usually do in a stipulated time period.

5. FileZilla

An FTP client is indispensable tool for bloggers. Be it tinkering with your blogging platform



or troubleshooting hosting woes, you’ll have to use an FTP client sometime or the other
during your blogging endeavours. There are a number of good FTP clients available in
the market, and FileZilla is just one of them. It’s my pick.

I suggest FileZilla because it’s free and open source. There’s a site manager to store all
your connection details, so that you need not have to enter them everytime you use
FileZilla. You can of course give raw FTP commands. There’s not just the GUI in it.

There’s a portable version as well and you can carry it in your USB Stick. It’s a must-have
app for any blogger with a self-hosted blog.

6. FastStone Capture

A screen capture tool is essential for bloggers, especially tech bloggers. FastStone
Capture does the task for you. Just hit the Print Screen key after you install the program
and then you can save your image in the desired format in a folder of your choice, or
copy it to the clipboard. Just what you’d expect from a normal screen capture program.

Of course, you can either perform full screen captures or only a specific window and save
it in any of the six specified formats. Overall, it’s a nice and little app that just does what it
says.

I’ll also recommend FastStone Capture for its good image editing capabilities but you
have to shell out around thirty bucks after the trial period is over. SnagIt is another
software, but it’s a bit costlier.

If you already use Evernote, you can easily capture your screen by hitting the PrintScreen
key - it already has a minimal screen capture tool built-in.

7. TweetDeck



Twitter is the craze these days and everyone’s on it. As a blogger, it’s important that you
start using twitter to leverage your online connections. Lots of people Twitter to help
people, join the conversation with their readers, get feedback and do a lot more.

A Twitter client that lets you manage conversations and people on Twitter is a necessity
and you won’t find a better one than TweetDeck for that purpose. In TweetDeck, you can
create what are called ‘groups’ and track messages from a particular group of people. For
instance, I can create a group named ‘most loyal readers’ and give their tweets some
special attention.

There’s multicolumn view on TweetDeck, which you can customize to your needs.
TweetDeck also supports Facebook and you can view updates from your friends on
Facebook as well. If you’re a minimalist, you can try twhirl that comes without the big
bells and whistles.

What other desktop apps do you think are a must-have for bloggers using Windows? You
can share what you know in the comments.

Baker @ ManVsDebt Wow, amazing resources. Sadly, I’m not using many of these
April 22nd, 2009 5:43 am programs. I’m going to download them and give them a test

Maybe only one every couple of days though. I don’t want to

Thanks for all the information!

Thanks for the list!

thats it.

Together with your 31 Day blog challenge this will help me

April 22nd, 2009 6:10 am

Sheamus Good post. Question: why would you use Windows Live
April 22nd, 2009 6:13 am Writer over the WYSIWYG interface of Wordpress?

Personally, I write my articles in Word where I can be
assured that they’re properly spelling and grammar-checked
to my satisfaction, and then copy and paste using WP’s
handy button. But from time to time I do write directly into WP
and I’m not sure why I would choose or need another
application to do this.

I’ve experimented with FeedDemon but it doesn’t stand up to
the convenience of Google Reader for me, especially as I run
my feed through iGoogle, which is super handy.

FileZilla is excellent - no arguments there. :)

And the same goes for TweetDeck - it’s the best Twitter client
by a country mile. The only problem is the API drain. I
recently wrote an article about how you can make a few easy
tweaks to the TweetDeck configuration to save up to 50% of
your hourly API.

I guess I’m a bit old-school as the only essential non-
standard applications I use for blogging are Textpad, for
editing code and keeping notes (I’d use Notepad, but it
doesn’t tabulate code properly), and an old free version of
Paint Shop Pro. :)

Michael Martine A Windows user will also find that Notepad++ is an
April 22nd, 2009 6:13 am indispensable code editor (it has a built-in FTP client, but I
still prefer FileZilla, which I see you recommend).

For note-taking and screen-capture, Microsoft OneNote does
a fabulous job. To use the screen capture capability, just hit
Windows Key + S. You can paste the shots into OneNote
and then export them as images.

Joe Bluster http://www.jingproject.com — It’s SnagIt’s baby brother.
April 22nd, 2009 6:18 am Great tool for screen captures and simple recordings.

Jacob Duchaine TweetDeck is great.
April 22nd, 2009 6:18 am
You should do one of these for Linux users. I say that mostly
because I use Ubuntu linux and I could use tipped off to
some of the better tools I could be using if there are any.

tashfeen Nice choice of tools. Q10 was definitely an interesting choice!
April 22nd, 2009 6:19 am But I like RSSOwl better than FeedDemon, and Live Writer
isn’t without it’s quirks - http://techqi.blogspot.com/2009/01/3-



best-free-blog-editors-and-their.html. Great job overall!

Kaye Great list. I LOVE LIve Writer. Not only does it make my life
April 22nd, 2009 6:41 am easier for writing on my blogs, but it allows me to add
pictures/photos much easier!

Tweetdeck is another app I can’t do without. I’ve tried pretty
much all the others for Twitter and it’s the easiest, the most
organized, and helps me keep on top of it while researching
as well!

I’ll have to take a peek at the rest as well. Thanks for being
such a great resource! :)

Dawn Great article, hadn’t heard of much of the software.
April 22nd, 2009 7:06 am
I like ClassicFTP or Fling FTP, both free and very easy to
use http://nch.com.au

BlakeMoser I’ve started using the Shareaholic plugin. I find this is one of
April 22nd, 2009 7:11 am the most comprehensive share applications. It works with 30
different social networks, and very easy to use.

Roosevelt P. You can actually do most of the stuff with Microsoft Outlook
April 22nd, 2009 7:38 am software. (I myself actually discovered it few weeks ago)

Either way the above tools are great alternatives :).

You can check my blog above, if you want to know how to
make the most out of outlook.

Nenad Petkovič And this article is coming a bit late for me. I’m now on
April 22nd, 2009 7:58 am Ubuntu. Think it were good idea to write such a post for Linux
users. Also must say that while I was using I have had a few
of this applications installed such as WLW, FileZilla, and
Evernote also. As far as I am asking for screen capturing I
was using Jing, for rss reader Snarfer. And now when I’m
twitter addicted I’m also using the TweetDeck. Pardon for my
english, I’m from Croatia.
Since the site is still under construction I will not provide my
link.

My Medical Note I use filezilla on a daily basis. The rest are all new to me. I
April 22nd, 2009 8:13 am will give them a try.

Catherine Franz Microsoft’s OneNote does most all all these in one product. I
April 22nd, 2009 8:58 am purchased it 2 months ago and my productivity trippled
overnight — once I was able to learn it. It’s simple to learn
(there are plenty of video’s available) I just needed to figure
out how to track the 5 books, my 12 website information and
tons of other stuff. However, I’ve got it down pat. And I love
the capture screen feature, it’s made everything so much
easier.

Another productivity tool is using two monitors. I went to dual
monitors about 6 months ago and my productivity doubled
the very next day. I don’t know how I ever lived without it.
Next month I’m going to three monitors. I’m a power user
writer, I type over 120 words a minute and I love having one



or two resources open while I write (as a copywriter I need
this).

Catherine Franz Oh yes, forgot. There’s a 90 days free trial version available
April 22nd, 2009 8:59 am on Microsoft’s web site.

As Mikie used to say, “try it, you’ll love it.”

Robby G Windows Live Writer sounds great and also the FileZilla
April 22nd, 2009 9:25 am portable version. I use Digsby instead of Tweetdeck, it’s been
working fine for me.

Terry Freedman Thx Darren. I already use some of these: I really like Filezilla
April 22nd, 2009 9:46 am and Live Writer. You’ve convinced me to try Feeddemon
again, and Evernote. Hadn’t heard of Q10 but I like the idea
of distraction-free functionality! Like the sound of that screen
capture prog too. I currently use a freebie called Hoversnap
but it sounds like your recommendation is a little more
flexible.

Cheers

needmoney.com I love Filezilla. beautiful application, and it Just Works.
April 22nd, 2009 9:54 am

adrian boioglu @Dan Miranda: my point exactly!
April 22nd, 2009 10:52 am Darren, do you have anything for us?

As a 4-months Mac User who switched from Windows after
11 years, I can tell you it’s much better to blog on the Mac.

I thought I’d never get over not using Windows Live Writer. I
even installed XP with VMWare on my Mac for that. Well,
that and Outlook 2007’s RSS Feed Reader. Those were the
2 most important apps useful for me as a blogger on
Windows.

Now I can say i’ve found the perfect replacement for both of
them. Ecto is doing a very good job when it comes to offline
blogging. It has some extra features that WLW didn’t have so
i;m happy with it.

NetNewsWire is the perfect RSS Feed Reader. Even better
than everything windows all -together. I wouldn’t go back to
Outlook for anything in the world.

For Twitter I use Twitterfox and testing Nambu. My FTP client
is Cyberduck. Fugu or Transmit are good as well.

Evernote is there for Mac and iPhone too, but i don’t need it.
Mac OS X’s built in screen capture is perfect. If you need
more you can use ScreenShot Plus (free dashboard widget).

Any other ideas?

Steven-Sanders Great list. Definitely worth bookmarking.
April 22nd, 2009 10:53 am
I use most of these, but I haven’t heard of 1 or 2 of them.

I’m especially interested in evernote.

Thanks!



topcool i’m using these applications except Q10
April 22nd, 2009 11:08 am will try this now.
thank you

Amaron The FeedDemon screenshot is very old!
April 22nd, 2009 11:49 am

Online Income I have tried WLW and I honestly just don’t see the appeal
April 22nd, 2009 11:52 am compared to the regular WordPress interface. Maybe it’s
because I’m a “cloud” kind of guy but I don’t see the benefits
of using it as a desktop app to write posts instead of just
firing up Word and copy+pasting when you’re done.

Nice list otherwise, TweetDeck is especially awesome. Would
have been nice to see a time management utility in the list,
it’s something I’ve been struggling to find for awhile now.

Susan Myers This is an awesome list. Thanks for sharing. Downloading
April 22nd, 2009 12:17 pm Microsoft Writer now. I currently use Evergreen notes and
LOVE IT!

The Small Business Hi Darren
Web Design Man
Thanks for the apps.
April 22nd, 2009 1:28 pm
I really like the look of Evernote and Feedemon. Going over
to check them out now.
I have been using Tweetdeck but I’m not really sure whether I
like it or not. It seems to suck up a lot of memory resources
on your computer.
Thanks again

April 22nd, 2009 8:06 pm look;

BlogJet is another off-line blog editor. It’s not free but has
some features that Live Writer lacks, like the choice where
you save files, while missing a few that Live Writer has.
http://blogjet.com/

RSS Bandit is an open souce off-line feedreader. It already
has the Google reader sync that FeedDemon currently lacks.
http://www.rssbandit.org/

Mario Thanks for the review. I already use some of them, but just
April 22nd, 2009 9:48 pm installed Windows Live Writer.

It looks good, but for whatever reason the program installed
in Dutch. I guess because my OS is installed in Dutch. This is
not really a problem, but that it doesn’t has an English
spelling check is a problem.

Finding help in the help section or on any forum (preferable
not in MS’s) is too time consuming. The frustrating part is that
it’s not easy to get rid of MS programs once they are
installed, they always keep nested somewhere in the registry.

Anyway, have a nice day.
Mario

TMWW I absolutely cannot live without my Windows Live Writer! This
April 23rd, 2009 12:01 am was a great list and thank you so much for recommending
FeedDemon. I was looking for a simple RSS reader that I
could read from my desktop without having to log into Google
Reader all the time to read. This allows me to read a blurb of
the post, expand if I’m interested and want to read more,
AND allows me to leave comments for the author right from
the reader - unlike GR. Thank you so much! I’m definitely
hooked on this now! Just cut about 45 minutes off my
reading time daily to allow me to do other things, and who
doesn’t like a little extra “found” time to do something
meaningful with … like watch the kids LOL!

Neil Matthews My essential tool is a pencil and paper, a lot less
April 23rd, 2009 12:56 am cumbersume than many of hte applications you mention.

Just because it can be done on a computer does not mean
you should. There look I’ve gone and said it, the Geeks will
be starting up their twitter apps for a goo ol’ school flaming. :)

Joe Darren,
April 23rd, 2009 1:01 am
Thank you so much for this post. I am considering shifting
over from Google Docs to Windows Live Writer - sadly, I am
currently stuck on a Windows laptop for the majority of my
blog work, so this tool while being native to Windows may be
a best bet for me.

Question for you: do you know how well, if at all, Live Writer
works with custom fields? I use custom field entries for
images, and would like to bypass, if I can, the WP editor
altogether.

Thank you again!

Mary N. Exceptionally helpful post. Thank you so much!
April 23rd, 2009 3:15 am

Make Money Online Nice article there. I thought Google reader was the best, but i
April 23rd, 2009 6:13 am was pretty wrong i guess.

Waiting the essential applications for MAC.

Angiel I love Mozilla.org flavors and Filezilla is no exception.
April 23rd, 2009 7:26 am
But I think the application that intrigues me most from your
list is Evernote – never heard of it.

It looks like a dream, and I’m going to check it out ASAP.

Also, Ive been looking for an RSS Reader I can recommend
to my clients who don’t use Firefox.

Thanks for heads up on FeedDemon! Great list.



Trina L. Grant | Neil Matthews: I use pen and notepads…I cannot help it. No
Professional Freelance
Writer doubt, for a quick place to jot notes and and reminders, and
April 23rd, 2009 11:20 am a new story just burning a hole in my brain, I will use paper
until it is obsolete. I have tried to use different notepad apps
and they just are not quick and efficient enough. I have
many, many spiral notebooks full of notes and story ideas
and all the other junk writers fill notebooks with. In fact they
are some of my prize possessions, because they are
essentially the condensed story of my life, in various forms,
from various points of view.

with Blogger.

Prasanna Though, I regularly use live writer & tweetdeck, I didn’t knew
April 24th, 2009 3:00 am about other 5 tools. I will give a look at other tools shortly.
Thanks for the info Darren.

Shankar Ganesh Thanks to the guys who appreciated this post. I’m glad you
April 24th, 2009 4:36 pm guys found it useful.

Thanks to the guys who suggested alternative applications as
well. I’ll check them out.

To those who asked for a Mac apps list, Darren has already
written one and I mentioned that in the first paragraph. See
this post:
http://www.problogger.net/archives/2008/01/17/essential-mac-
os-x-applications-for-bloggers/

DK A nice collection of essentials for Bloggers using Windows. I
April 25th, 2009 6:11 am have used almost all of the above said tools and would have
to disagree that all of these are essential. Except for Filezila
and Faststone capture, I did not find any of the others
“essential tools”. Filezila also is something that I have seldom
used since the day I have been on Wordpress but I use it for
my other websites.
Hence If I am to comment upon these tools, I really do not
think that they are that essential for a blogger. This is my
opinion and there might be others who feel otherwise.

3arabax Great set of handy prog. I don’t use any of them.

April 26th, 2009 9:12 am reading more about several of the applications that you have
listed here.

I’ve been very happy using BlogDesk

so far. It’s made blogging much faster and easier than when
I’ve helped maintain blogs in the past.
