Default Windows 7: Blessing In-Disguise For Tech Bloggers - 02-14-2009, 02:18 PM

Creating blog posts like software reviews & tutorials now becomes super easy if you use a particular feature for a function it was not intended for.

Say you want to write a tutorial on how to multiply 0 with 0, all you need to do is:

1. Start PSR
2. Open Calculator & perform the calculation.
3. Save the recorder’s output & extract the MHTML file.
4. Open it in MS Word 2007.
5. Remove the unwanted text
6. Copy-paste the rest in Windows Live Writer.
7. Format the article as wanted.
8. Change the image URLs to “Source picture”.
9. Give the title, tags, categories, excerpt etc.
10. Publish.

That’s it!

Here is a blog post I created out of a PSR file

Nice; very interesting too! I think qualifies for the Best Tip contest.

I added a tag to make it easier to find when the contest is over.
