Windows Live Writer Tips #8 – Add Features to Live Writer Using Plug-ins

Like a lot of programs, there are always some things that Live Writer doesn’t do that you’d like it to do. However, Live Writer has it’s own way of allowing other developers to create those missing features and bits of functionality, and create plug-ins that you can install and then use from within Live Writer.

To browse some of the plug-ins that are available, click on on the bottom right of the Live Writer window, this will take you to https://gallery.live.com/default.aspx?pl=8:

From here there are a plethora of plug-ins you can download that will really enhance your Live Writer experience.
