I Hate Typos -- Radio Blogging from MSWord (#291)

Using LiveTopics to beat typos. I hate typos, and I haven't the time or the inclination to figure out little accesso-checkers like MicroSpell. I'm sure it's great, and all, but I just don't have the time.

So I was looking at |Matt|'s blog today, checking out the TopicRoll, and saw a link to Radio Blogging from Word (there's a Mac version, too.)

It is pretty technical for a pseudo-geek wannabee like me, and I have almost no tolerance for stupid MSWord tricks (I can't even make it do a decent outline) but if I can make this work, reliably, this will be a good thing.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Update: Well, this does work. It runs a little slow on my PIII 733 machine, but it does carry over links, colors, and basic styling just like Simon Fell said it would. Neat. Now we'll have to see just how useful.
