Qumana Editor

June 4, 2006 by Tricia

I thought I’d try out a BL0G editing platform called Qumana.

If you have multiple sites you can set the qumana editor up for each site that you want to automatically send posts to and just use the one editor to write all of your posts.

Since I’m considering creating two more sites I thought this might work out well for me.  Instead of having to log into each site separately to create a post I can do it all from my desk top with one program.

The editor seems to have a few more options than the WordPress editor. I can change the color of my lettering if I want to, and I can even change the style of the font.  Now, I’m not sure yet whether WordPress will adapt these changes when I post this to my site, but if it does, that’s wonderful.  More options.
There’s also a spell checker!  This is something that WordPress is missing and I’m glad to be able to spell check my posts once again.

I can also insert Q-Ads directly into my posts.  Now I know that many of you don’t like sites that advertise, and I don’t plan to do this often, but it’s nice to have the option to add a relevant ad into a post if I want to.

Addressing the ad issue.  I know that many people feel that you can’t really make money by placing ads on BL0GS but I have.  Not much mind you.  I make more on my two websites than I do on my BL0GS but it all ads up.  Remember I haven’t been to work since early December.  I need to find ways to make some money and unfortunately, marring my site with a few ads is one of the ways that is working for me.

Finally, the big test! Time to post this to my site and see if all goes well!  Wish me luck!

    I never even noticed that you have ads. I use a highly effective ad blocking CSS for Firefox. I had to load your page in IE to see what you’re talking about.

    So yeah, there they are! I don’t think you have too many ads.

    I too have just tried Qumana as well. Seems like an excellent tool, still testing some things though. One thing I don’t like about it is the inability to use the “more” tag in WordPress from the editor. Other than that, it looks pretty sweet. One thing I am testing as well is the pinging to Technorati. By default, it is on in version 3. I also have it on via the admin area of my wordpress blog. I have done 3 posts, 2 with it on with WordPress, and 1 without. So far, the 2 have showed up (a little slow mind you) and the third I’m still waiting on. From the looks of it, it doesn’t appear to be working.

    Excellent tool.

    I will have to check out Qumana, I have been using Editor Monkey for about 3 months and very please with it. It handles pics much better than the wordpress editor and can do the font and spell checking that you mentioned.
