Having only been out a couple of days there are already plugins for Live Writer coming out which is fantastic to see. There have been some people ripping on Live Writer for missing some features (like tagging and flickr support) and disregarded what I see as one of the most powerful features of Live Writer – a pluggable API (download the SDK here).

Already up are the following plug-ins:

  • Flickr4Writer – A plugin to insert your images from Flickr
  • Tag4Writer – A plugin to insert tags (Including Technorati integration)
  • Currently Listening – For all the people who think we want to know what you’re listening to ;)

I’m looking forward to seeing some of the more funky plugins that come out over the next few weeks :) Keep in mind these are first version plugins so your mileage may vary.

beta @ amanzi » First Live Writer plugins available says 17 August 2006 @ 19:01

[...] I spotted this over on JD’s blog, the first plugins are available for Windows Live Writer. I’m using the Tags plugin here, and there’s also a plugin for inserting Flickr images into posts which will definitely be very popular. Unfortunately the tags don’t integrate properly with Ultimate Tag Warrior, but it’s close enough so that readers wouldn’t notice. [...]
