Cool, I had been looking forward to it. One more feature I want is advanced search to retrieve posts and pages, by default its just upto 500.

@Kanak: If you are going to use WLW check out my configuration tutorial on that.

I think time has come when i seriously need to look into this. I tried using windows live writer once , but the problem was while inserting videos , the code changes when I switch from visual editor to normal editor. I hope that problem is fixed now . Anyways autosave is really good and necessary. Once while writing a post online, my website went down but autosave saved my post.

Nice tip, and I had already enabled it – WLW does crash ocassionally, and losing a post isn’t exactly good.

I’d written about a fix for install/update problems for WLW’s latest versions, “How to Fix WLW install problems“.

Good to know because I am using the Live Writer for all my blogging needs now. It is way more convenient than Wordpress integrated editor in my opinion.
