I'm using Mars Edit to make this post. In order to see what kind of functionality I can get. I can do a link to Drobo?

Can I do bold text? I can, but I'm not looking at a wysiwyg. There is a preview in another window, however.

I wonder if your typical non-web-person will be able to use this.

Can I put a picture in?

Looks pretty good.

I'm pretty happy with that.

Okay so Mars Edit is a program that allows you to make blog postings directly from you computer, using the Content Management System's API.
