It's Mini "Me" Time!

Published 05 August 04 04:40 PM | mhawley

I just found this totally cool feature in BlogJet that I think everyone will be like "woah". BTW, the reference "Me" refers to BlogJet, I don't actually have a mini-me like Dr. Evil running around (although how cool would that be).

So, open up BlogJet. Go to Tools->Preferences and check the minimize to notification area checkbox. Now, this isn't the cool part, but the next piece is.

Minimize BlogJet so it goes into the systray. Right click the icon and choose "Micro Mode".

Now a new window will open up that is semi-translucent that allows you to type a blog post in the corner of your screen so that your co-workers or boss can't see it without looking hard for it.

It does have a downside to it, you can't do any fancy editing, set a title, or post directly from it. All these features require you to "restore" BlogJet. And then, the size of BlogJet is screwed up...cool none-the-less.
