Blogger posting woes
July 17th, 2007 Posted in rant
I experienced my first heart pain when writing the post about Singapore. I am copying and pasting some links when I accidentally paste over half of my post.
Normally, this would not be a problem as I could cancel this post and revert to the previous saved post but good old Blogger Autosave feature save the draft before I have a chance to revert back.
Half the draft is gone and I have got to rewrite them. It is an extremely uncomfortable feeling, I almost don’t want to rewrite it. I feel most of the first time inspiration and personal touch is gone. Where is the UNDO function when one needs it.
Lesson learn:
- write in a notepad (like notepad++), then transfer to Blogger; or
- use a desktop blogging editor like, Wbloggar, Zoundry, Qumana, or Blogjet.
Anyone had used them before? I would be interested to hear your views on your blogging editor.

It’s a little glitchy, but I’ve gone to doing most of my blog drafts in Google Notebook. I like it because it travels with me so I can add new drafts and tweak & tune existing notes from home, work, or wherever.

Hmm, I have only used google notebook for researching and never used it for writing blog draft. Great idea.
Oh, by the way, I did it again. Last week, I pasted over my post carelessly. Heart pain number 2. Guess I never learn from my mistake.
