Blog Desk Review – This is a review and test at the same time

By Brian Chappell on January 8, 2008

I just stumbled on Blogdesk.org and thought I would give it a whirl. It is a desktop interface that facilitates blog posting on multiple domains. I am a little hesitant it doesn’t give me enough control.

You are definitely going to have to know HTML to really make this work. There isn’t a full blown WYSIWYG editor within the interface itself, just a few standard buttons to spell check, bold, italicize, insert images, align left, alight right etc. etc.

UPDATE:

There are a few things I don’t like about Blog Desk right off the bat:

• You cannot edit the page name, so you get this page being called blog-desk-review-this-is-a-review-and-test-at-the-same-time which is too long for my taste and has stop words in it.
• Page Title and Post Title cannot be made different, they have to be the same.
• You cannot add a description tag nor meta keywords (since MSN still uses them)

If blogdesk could simply fix the above snaffus then this platform would be badass, and could really save an SEO a lot of time.
