Some innovation must take place with desktop publishing webware that enables functionality when offline. I've also found that working with images is awkward with the online tools I've used (Zoho, Google Docs, WriteWith). The next real demand in this space seems to be with blog publishing tools such as Windows Live Writer and Ecto. Keep up the great work on your blog!

I focus a lot of different software programs and am beginning to publish review/guides. Due to these interests, I now use a variety of programs: Rough Draft -- for feature articles KeyNote -- for gathering and organizing ideas/information for future articles Writer's Blocks for visual outlining, index card style Nota Bene -- for a big book with heavy research & bibliographic requirements Word -- for business-related documents Word Press -- for my blog [tho experimenting with several off-line blog editors] Those are my favorites, but use quite a few others.
