Testing Performancing for Firefox
This morning, while looking for scripts that might ease the burden of using Ecto with Firefox, I came upon a free Firefox extension called Performancing. I encountered it on the blog Lorelle on Wordpress. It apparently understands all of the APIs that I use ... Typepad for TWF and the MetaWeblog API that's used for my other blogs.
This is a first attempt to use it.

Very nice. Five points to note.
1) It works as advertised, and when used in conjunction with Ecto, I have a double-barreled approach to managing my blogs.
2) While Ecto retains a list of Technorati tags that have been used (or at least a menu from which to choose), Performancing is free-form, and allows you to establish them in a free-form manner for each post.
3) The editing works as expected... one can publish to the blog as an edit or as a new post.
4) The history capability pulls down recent posts, and allows one to select and then either edit or delete a post.
5) This makes it pretty easy to post a minor variation of or the same post to multiple blogs.
