Ok my friends. Normally when I want to write a blog post i log into my WordPress admin account and write the blog post there. But I am getting older and older… and I get to lazy for this. So it was time to have a look for some easier way to do my blog posts. And I think I found a nice solution: Scribefire.

What is Scribefire?

ScribeFire is an extension for the Mozilla Firefox Web Browser that integrates with your browser to let you easily post to your blog: you can drag and drop formatted text from pages you are browsing, take notes, and post to your blog.

And right now this is my first post I am creating with this nice Firefox Extension. And i must say it really makes a good first impression. So if you are a lazy ass like me and you are looking for a way to create your blog posts faster and easier, give Scribefire a try.

URL: http://www.scribefire.com/

This Firefox extension helps you working with WordPress by providing useful help and tools. The extension eases the fast and simple access to develop-relevant pages of the WordPress Codex. So you always have all the necessary help at your fingertips. It’s also possible to search after strings of text that is currently marked. Furthermore it’s possible to easily switch to WordPress backend of current site. More than that, a small Icon indicates wether the currently displayed website makes use of WordPress.

‘Editor’s Choice’ links are obtained from a remote source (the author’s website), therefore are faster kept updated and available than the Codex links of this WordPress Helper extension. The links are maintained by the plugin author, new links can be suggested by any user though.

Other features are:

* Update Notification on new WordPress versions
* Community notifications: Get informed whenever there’s a possibility to contribute to the process of WP development (polls, feature requests etc.)
* Website Profiles
* Custom Shortcuts
* Various preference settings

Forms? Errors? We all know this! This script helps you with it: When an error needs to be displayed, the script creates a div and positions it in the top right corner of the input. This way you don’t have to worry about your HTML form structure. The rounded corner and shadow are done with CSS3 and degrade well in non compliant browsers. There is no images needed.

Cycle is a script that supports image presentations to easily display multiple images. This script supports a lot of effects and the cycling of html elements. Presentation Cycle is a variation on the functionality of Cycle. Instead of generating a list of numbers that are clickable Presentation Cycle generates a progress bar that shows when the new slide will appear. In this article you will learn how to implement this on your web page and it will give you some tips on how to adjust the looks of the cycle elements and progress bar.
