As always I’m trying something new with the blog site. In the future I would like to make a blog that is on one particular subject, instead of the digital playground that I use this one as. I’m constantly changing things around, trying out this feature, or that software, or some other plug-in, all this just to see how well it works, or how easy to use. This way when the questions come I have a chance at having answers, cause don’t you know, since I work in some aspect of the IT industry that I know EVERYTHING electronic. Another rant for another day…

Anyhow the test for today is using Microsoft Word 2007 to post to my blog. Word does have a blog post template, believe it or not. I’m sure the intention was for SharePoint or Microsoft live, instead of WordPress. Especially now with all the features that the WordPress editor has and how yes, having all the “power” of Word to edit my post, still seems to fall short.

Well let’s run it through its paces.

Let me make this “heading 2″

I’ll put some sort of chart here

I guess I’ll add some smart art here.

And a normal picture

Eh good enough for now, let’s see how well this posts.

EDIT*******

Well I went to post this, but apparently adding pictures is an entirely different challenge. For now, the results are this. Only use word if you feel like making a post and not opening the browser or anything like that. I suppose you could type it up somewhere else, and then load it once you got to an internet connection. Say you were on a hike of some form no internet access but still wanted to keep a daily log. A stretch probably, but you never know. There is a spot in the Account section for picture settings. I’ll check those out and see if I get any better results.
