ScribeFire – Any Blogger’s Right Hand Man

Posted: February 29, 2008 | Filed Under Add-ons, Usability

Digging through my archived posts I knew I had written something about ScribeFire before, but could not find it. How could I overlook one of the best blogging tools for Firefox? ScribeFire, which used to be known as Performancing for Firefox) is the hands down best blog editor that turns Firefox into a publishing machine.

To get started, all you need to do is download the addon from the Mozilla web site, restart Firefox and then launch ScribeFire by clicking on the orange task bar icon or right clicking on any web site and selecting “blog this page” from the ScribeFire menu item.

For the best blog updater I often recommend people uses Windows Live Writer. If it isn’t your cup of tea though my number two choice would definitely be ScribeFire.

  • Sweet! Exactly what I needed! :-)
  • Hey Ellie, the "keywords" function should fill in your tags for Wordpress. When using WLW, click on the double down arrows at the bottom of the editing window (next to where you can put in the date).

    Click that, and you should get some more options. Where it says "keywords" then you can put in tags that will show up as the WordPress tags. Hope that helps!
  • Long story short, I ended up writing a blog in Windows Live Writer and it added a lot of extra code to the post. I am not sure if this was a one time thing or what, but it really made me nervous.

    I also couldn't figure out how to use WordPress tags (versus Technorati tags) in my post when using WLW. Maybe I will figure it out soon - or there's a plugin for it. :)
