ScribeFire Is A Killer Blogging Tool

Every so often you stumble across something and think, “How is it that I didn’t know about this sooner?” ScribeFire is one of those things.
ScribeFire is a blog publishing tool that integrates with the Firefox web browser as an add on. Once you install ScribeFire you can create and edit blog posts from within the Firefox browser.
I started using the tool yesterday and I already feel like this is going to help me create higher quality blog posts. One reason the quality can improve is the fact that your blog post is created in a pane that allows you to continue to view the current web page. So while you’re writing you can review the page for information, links and images that might make your post better.
The integration with WordPress is very good. Once you set up a connection (which is very easy) your categories, posts and pages are imported to the interface. You can also add categories and edit previous entries or pages. ScribeFire supports tags for WordPress as well so you get just about all of the features you need to write a complete post.
If you’re a Firefox user who wants a more convenient way to create blog posts on the fly then you should definitely give ScribeFire a try.

This looks like a keeper. Glad your’re reading TechCrunch so I don’t have to.
Maybe a little OCD on Twitter though?? We’ll see.

Mark,
It is very good indeed. A point of clarification. I did not pick this up via TechCrunch. I haven’t been subscribed to them for a few months now. Every so often I browse the Firefox add on site to see if there is anything that can improve my browsing experience. This is what I found on my most recent trip over there.
Take care,
Rob
