Windows Live Writer tech preview adds image editing features
by Brad Linder Jun 3rd 2008
The latest version has a revised toolbar, tabs for switching views and word count features. But probably the most notable change is the addition of basic image editing support. You can now crop, tilt, or rotate images in Windows live Writer. There are also additional border styles including reflection and rounded corners.
You can also upload videos directly to Soapbox, MSN's answer to YouTube, for easy embedding in posts. We'd be happier if you could upload videos to YouTube and other sites as well, but this is still just a technical preview, so perhaps support for other sites will come in a future release.

Neat. I've been waiting for WLW to get a new update. Sounds great.

Ditto on the ability to upload video elsewhere. MS seems to be getting this in many places but sadly does continue to shoehorn users into their properties in others.
But truth be told, the Soapbox provides a better video experience both onsite and embedded than the more popular ones.
Just sayin...
