Testing BlogJet

Contents
Updated on 2021-02-13

I have installed an interesting application – BlogJet. It’s a cool Windows client for my blog tool (as well as for other tools). Get your copy of BlogJet here: https://blogjet.com. Being a Windows-native application, and that I’m running on a Mac, I’ve installed it in Crossover Mac.

The installation procedure for BlogJet in XOver is as follows:

  1. install XOver 8.0 (which is in beta at time of writing).
  2. create and install an Internet Explorer 7 “bottle”.
  3. select “install unsupported software” and install BlogJet into the same IE7 bottle*.

*it has to be the same bottle that has an existing installation of MS Internet Explorer, as BlogJet uses the HTML render engine within the application to display your posts in a WYSIWYG manner (What You See Is What You Get).

Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid; humans are incredibly slow, inaccurate and brilliant; together they are powerful beyond imagination.
