Another simple but very effective and very useful Windows Live Writer plugin from the plugin god Scott . Very simply, this plugin will turn an @name in to a URL at the point of publishing. So if all works well @stevecla will magically have a URL added when I hit post on this!

This saves me about 10 seconds per post which probably equates to….well, a lot of time.

You can grab it from Scott’s Skydrive. Simply unpack the zip to c:\program files\windows live\writer\plugins and then open Writer and go to tools, options, plugins and enable it by selecting and clicking on options

Nice work Scott!

    Thanks for the link to Scott's Skydrive. I'm already a fan of Live Writer, and Scott's plugins and blog posts will make it even better.

    Why is this not available via gallery?  We need to get it out there.

    relax Kevin, our man Scott is very good at getting these in the gallery and the delay is probably on the MSFT side to approve it
