I’m looking at tools that can streamline my WordPress publishing process. I’m always looking for the easiest way to send content to my blogs.

For quick text posts like this one, logging onto WordPress and formatting and adding tags can be a bit more troublesome than it’s worth.

This evening I’m trying Ecto, which works very much like a simple text editor.

Features include:

• Flickr integration

• Tagging and categorizing

• Extremely lightweight

I really like Ecto’s ability to tag content and quickly post. It’s available for a 21-day free trial, then it’s $19.95. A little bit steep, but worth it if it stands up to the test.
