yWriter - Word Processor for Authors

New Version of Blogger to check out

Blogger has released a beta version with some interesting, but long overdue, features. Labels (tags), drag and drop editing, the ability to have your blog be private, or viewable to "members". I've already started a more personal blog with a new domain name, but hopefully I'll get notice soon that I can change this blog over. I'm looking forward to that.
