Open Source Tools For Writers

in Blogs, Etc. Helpful Freelance Writers

tools-for-writers Mike McCallister who twits as workingwriter@twitter.com and blobs at Notes from the Metaverse pointed to 100 Awesome Open Source Tools for Writers, Journalists, and Bloggers which though way too long to plow through even on a Sunday is worth taking a look at and maybe bookmarking.

Yes, in fact, do book mark this one.

Thanks Mike!

Thanks for the link. This indeed is one of the few good lists of this kind.
If anyone is interested in a list of more than 350 tools, especially for technical writers, you might perhaps also like to check out http://www.indoition.com/index.html. Not all the tools listed there are free or Open Source, but many of them are.

Thanks for the link, Anne. I’ve posted a few more thoughts about this list of tools here.

I agree with Spike, so THANKS, for another great resource, Anne!

Rest assured: if I didn’t mean it, I wouldn’t say it. Far too many people only post if they disagree or want to complain/argue. I believe in also posting to say thanks. What can I say? My parents tried to teach me to be polite…

Oooh, nice resource there. Thanks, Anne! (And I love the “way too long to plow through even on a Sunday”…!)
