    Get the brand new Q-Ads plugin for LiveWriter!

    Thursday, October 12th, 2006

    I do, on occasion use Live Writer, even though Qumana is my day to day tool of choice. As you know, LW has a nifty plugin API.  You also know that one of the things that makes Qumana special is Q-Ads.  We've recently launched the Q-Ads Tool for IE and Firefox, now comes a [...]

    Try Qumana five times, and you won't go back

    Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

    Sure I'm biased.  I've been with Qumana a long time, but like all software companies we really want you to download, install, and try our app.
    What we've learned recently is, especially by talking to other bloggers, is that a lot of folks say "You know I like my web-based editor provided by my blogging system".  [...]

    Qumana speaks your language!

    Monday, July 24th, 2006

    Parlez vous francais?  Habla español?  Don't know how to say it in Dutch, but if I could … I'd tell you that we speak your language.  On Friday we launched localized versions of Qumana in French, Spanish, and Dutch.  And a little bird told me that soon Spreche Deutsch, auch.  I've also heard that there [...]

    The new Qumana beta has the features you've been asking for …

    Friday, June 23rd, 2006

    In case you haven't heard the news, we just, like an hour ago, released an update to our Qumana v3 for Windows and Mac.  Ianiv has been slaving away at adding some awesome new features (redone image dialog, post into the past and future), squashing bugs (eeww, was that font bug I just stepped in?), [...]

    Thoughts on my Blogging 101 talk soon …

    Monday, May 15th, 2006

    Several people have been asking me this morning (friends mostly) what I'm going to talk about.  What am I going to cover.  Jon just asked about am I going to show all the cool stuff with Qumana.  Honest answer, I don't know right now.  Really.  Look I'm not slacking off, but man a Blogging 101 [...]

    Made the local paper … on the blog revolution, Qumana, and working at home

    Friday, May 12th, 2006

    Here is the full text of the article about me that appeared in the local paper.  I've added links to relevant sites.

    Sifry's State of the Blogosphere May 1st edition: the multilingual, tagged blogosphere

    Tuesday, May 2nd, 2006

    David Sifry's State of the Blogosphere has another installment.  While the last one focused on the growth of the blogosphere (that it is still growing, but begs the question, but for how much longer), this one looks at two very important facets of the "modern" blogosphere — languages used and the growth of tagging.
    Let's look [...]

    Qumana's big news … so that's where Tris has been

    Wednesday, April 5th, 2006

    Yesterday I hinted at Qumana's big news yesterday, well the news is out, Qumana struck a deal with Lycos to be the power  behind their renewed push into blogging.  I've blogged about this on the Qumana blog already and well, what else can I say.  This is huge.  It validates what we've been doing with [...]

    Congratulations to the Blogaholics! Arieanna and Ianiv's wedding!

    Sunday, April 2nd, 2006

    Yesterday was a tremendously special day for all of us at Qumana.  Arieanna and Ianiv got married yesterday in a lovely (and short!) ceremony out here in BC.  Boy, what can I say about it.  The location was amazing.  Arieanna looked lovely (as you can see … and what bride doesn't?) and the reception dinner [...]

    Ski or Surf Contest extended to April 15 …

    Saturday, March 25th, 2006

    Due to popular demand (and give me more time pleas), we've pushed the contest submission deadline off until April 15.  So, take a break from doing your taxes (in the U.S. and Canada, that is), download Qumana, blog about your tax woes (or anything else that comes to mind), then do a post about the [...]

    Today is where your blog begins … The rest is still unwritten Blogging Inspired by Natasha Beddingfield

    Monday, February 20th, 2006

    "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield has been in my CD player for a while now.  As I've been listening to it lately I realized that the chorus holds great advice for bloggers (new and experienced).  When the blogging cruise kicks off I'm going to do a session on content writing and strategies.  My plan is to [...]

    Smarter than Qumana? I think not. Save your money.

    Wednesday, February 15th, 2006

    Since this is my blog, I'm going to be a little more blunt than I was on the Qumana blog.  One of Qumana's competitors ran ads on Google and Technorati tied to the keyword "Qumana" with the tag-line "Smarter than Qumana".  Well, not only did this violate the TOS of Technorati and Google but it's [...]

    Been so busy I didn't blog this until now … Qumana releases v3.0 beta

    Saturday, February 11th, 2006
