MarsEdit 2 Released

September 7, 2007 by Dmitry

Customers switching from PCs to Macs ask us if we’re going to release BlogJet for Mac OS X. The answer is — we don’t have such plans at this time, sorry.

But if you’re looking for a BlogJet replacement for Mac OS X, look no futher than MarsEdit.

For Windows users: stay tuned for the next version of BlogJet.
