Since upgrading Wordpress to 2.0.2 I have started using the Dashboard interface for writing posts more and more, simply because I spend most of the day away from my Powerbook, where I have MarsEdit (still the best offline blog editor software).

There are some things that the Dashboard Interface couldn’t do that MarsEdit could, namely, Technorati tags (we can never have enough linklove :))

After poking around on the Wordpress plugins site, I found SimpleTags. Very nice and very simple.

SimpleTags is a WordPress plugin that will allow you to easily generate Technorati tags at the bottom of your blog entries. There are several plugins already available for this purpose, but they all require you to use custom fields within WordPress. The SimpleTags plugin eliminates this need, so you can now easily generate tags with your preferred method of posting, be it by email, a blogging tool like w.bloggar or from WordPress itself.

Follow the steps on the SimpleTag site, and thats it. Tag the end of your post with [ tags ] tagwords[ /tags ] and thats it!
