CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: Jason Parker on May 11, 2009

MarsEdit makes blogging easier, letting you ditch clunky browser-based editing in favor of a full-featured, fully Mac-powered desktop editor--and also lets you blog when you're offline. You get a straightforward interface for working with text (including cool markup macros that save you from repetitive typing), but what makes MarsEdit really useful is its easy uploading tools, two-way synching, AppleScript support, tight integration with Flickr, and compatibility with an impressive variety of both blog services and other text editors.

With nice bonus features like support for Tumblr, MarsEdit is a great example of indie software done right. It gives you lots of functionality, a professional level of quality, responsive support, and (of course, this being indie software) a modest price tag.
