Word 2007 to Feature Built-in Blogging

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the rapid-publishing dept.

Vitaly Friedman writes "Microsoft has revealed a surprising new feature for Word 2007: built-in blog publishing. The big surprise is this: the HTML that is generated is actually not that bad. 'Joe Friend, a lead program manager (Microsoft's term for a person who creates the specifications for software that programmers implement) has posted an entry on his blog regarding an interesting new feature being implemented for Word 2007: direct publishing of blogs to the web from within the program.'"

      How many times must a man fall into Microsoft's moron-trap
      Before you can call him a fag.
      How many times must a man buy a WalMart Pee Cee with OEM Ex Pee
      Before you can punch him in his face?

  2. Spell checker in every text box??? No thanks. by Viol8 · · Score: -1, Troll

    Err, no thanks. There's enough bloatware as it is without saddling
    the poor textbox with a bloody spell checker just so every 2 bit
    program has to waste more CPU cycles and loading time while the
    loader checks whether it needs to load yet another dynamic lib.
    If you're so stupid you can't spell properly most of the time perhaps
    you shouldn't be using a computer in the first place anyway. And
    for those situations where a spell checker is really critical build
    it into the app.
