ScribeFire is probably the best among all the blog publishing and editing software. Not only does it run directly from within Firefox, it also offers powerful rich text (WYSIWYG) editing found on enterprise solutions – for free.

ScribeFire is a complete package wrapped within a Firefox plugin. It caters to all your blogging needs, while remaining extremely fast and lightweight. Engineered for maximum web performance, ScribeFire is streamlined to take your blogging experience to a whole new level.

Below is a list of ScribeFire’s core features, as found on ScribeFire.com:

• Categorize and tag your blog posts
• Upload images
• Set timestamps
• Save works-in-progress as notes
• Post an entry as a draft
• Share your posts on social websites
• Upload files via FTP

As an evolution of the original Performancing Firefox addon, ScribeFire did not only impress the professional audience, but also made “a lot of bloggers swear by it.”

ScribeFire is available for download for Firefox 2 – 3.1.
