BlogJet Blog

Finally, I did it – a plugin to integrate RSS Bandit and BlogJet. If you’re using RSS Bandit to read feeds and BlogJet to post to your blog, this plugin is a must-have. It adds a new item to Bandit’s right-click menu – “BlogJet This!”. Click it and it will lanch BlogJet with the content of selected item.

Other news: I’m feeling much better now and continue coding the next version of BlogJet which, probably, will be available in the late October. I made a lot of promises about that version, so that it takes a lot of time to implement all the planned features:

• Extended entries.
• Excerpt and keywords.
• Trackbacks.
• Manual setting of post date/time.
• Easier account switching.
• Typograhic characters.
• Image resizing and thumbnails (not yet completed).

After BlogJet 1.2 release I want to have shorter release cycles, and one here’s the first step: I won’t make promises any more . In other words, I’ll apply Mouth Wide Shut policy by Joel Spolsky.

Matt Hawley writes about Micro Mode feature in BlogJet:

Now a new window will open up that is semi-translucent that allows you to type a blog post in the corner of your screen so that your co-workers or boss can't see it without looking hard for it.

Check out his post to learn how to use this feature.

Until now you couldn't purchase BlogJet if you had a free e-mail address. I'm happy to report that this restriction has been removed.

If you tried to purchase but had not luck because the system didn't accept your e-mail address, please try again.

Spanish and Portuguese (Portugal) spelling dictionaries for BlogJet are now available for download: http://blogjet.com/download/spell/

The installation is very simple: just download a file, run it and click Install. The language of spell checker then can be changed in Tools | Preferences… | Spelling tab.

Please tell me if something goes wrong with new dictionaries.
