There is a cool new blogging tool called Blog Mailr that allows you to post message to your blog by simply sending an email to your (secret) blog mailer address. I used it for the first time to post this message.

This is a great idea, especially for those of us who are always on the go, but blog regularly. Rather than having to use a web interface on your mobile device, simply use your email client to post your message. It may also work better for folks on the desktop who are more comfortable with writing messages in outlook (or who have not yet discovered the great blogging features of Microsoft Office Word 2007).

To test the inline image posting capability of Blog Mailer, I have inserted an image taken this morning by my colleague Don Stanwyck at Microsoft of the Snoqualmie Valley this morning (where I live). With several days of torrential downpour, the Snoqualmie river has reached (a record) flood stage.

I hope it doesn’t still look like this when I get home tonight…
