ecto is a commercial weblog client for Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows. It allows one to compose and store blog entries on the local desktop computer, then upload them to a weblog host. ecto interacts with popular server software such as Blogger, Moveable Type, and Wordpress, among others. The developer believes the additional flexibility of the desktop operating system allows the client to incorporate features lacking in web-based clients. [ [http://infinite-sushi.com/software/ecto/ Software website] ] For example, ecto incorporates spell checking, easy insertion of images, and text formatting. ecto employs the standard controls the the operating system provides to all applications. It can also trackback to other blogs and add categories and tags to a blog entry. The Macintosh version integrates with iTunes and iPhoto. AppleMatters gave it 9 out of 10. [cite web
