A good friend of mine, Lisa Cox, has just started blogging, while starting a grassroots run for president.  This gives you an idea of her energy level and verve for multitasking.  Personally blogging while running for President.  That's virtually unheard of, and may be the edge she needs to overcome the Romneyatch political ...

If there is an image, then all is good.  If there is no image, then I am not sure what I am to do.  Server permissions? This warning was generated using the Warning Sign Generator web page given to us by the same folks who gave us the Warning Label Generator. A fine piece of work in the long tradition of Acme style sites. Will it ...

It turns out there was a problem with the file version of the update of the Community Server MetaBlog implementation that was available on Robert McLaws's website, but I believe I have fixed the issues. If you see my head, then the newMediaObject implementation worked and I can nuke my Live Writer -> FTP -> FolderShare ...

Testing graphic upload capabilities via newMediaObject handler for Community Server. We shall see whether I need to revert to my FTP + Foldershare munge. Update: Robert McLaws has updated the Community Server MetaBlog interface so that it supports use of the newMediaObject as a method for pushing images/video/etc. to your server.  ...

This is a sample PNG of the interface of the Microsoft Live Writer interface, tested for image insertion and uploading through a ghastly hack. What a pain! When I first started blogging, I used Blogger at my brother's recommendation, for several reasons: It was free. It was somewhat easy (for me). It was highly customizable. The remnants of ...

Yesterday, I downloaded and installed Windows Live Writer (Beta) and everything worked swimmingly as long as one didn't wish to include images in the blog post.  Unfortunately, one did want to import images.  One has been wishing for an easier way to get images on the server and included in blog posts for quite some time. Naturally, ...

From time to time, I check out various methods for generating new blog entries.  This entry was generated using Windows Live Writer.  Not only is it a WYSIWYG editor, it downloads your custom style sheets from your blog so you see exactly the layout that you would see once the post is published. Hmmm... Importing images to the blog ...

They said it couldn’t be done, but I didn’t believe them. I have just blogged this puppy from inside Beta 2 of Word 2007. I installed Beta 2 for OneNote 2007 the day it was first available, and used it for the last three days of my English class. So far, I really like what I am seeing. This is a test to see that I can post to a Community Server ...

...couldn't put Humpty together again.  Nope, wrong mixed metaphore. I'm at TechEd Orlando, 2005, in CommNet, blogging and mailing.  I'm checked into my hotel and the conference, and have a moment to catch my breath.  This is not the first time I attended a TechEd in Orlando.  TechEd 2000 was also here, and the hotel I chose ...

I've managed to import all my old content from both previous incarnations of the robrohr.org blog (.Text and Blogger driven.)  Thank you, Google page cache and Newsgator RSS cache!  There are a few internal links between posts that need to be updated, but until I can get Community Server and FreeTextBox to stop mutually mangling my HTML, ...
