20% discount on Ecto

There's plenty of us here at TUAW who are big Ecto fans for our personal blogging needs, so I thought any of you TUAW readers nodding your heads in agreement might want to know that Ecto is going on sale. Between Dec. 23-26, the developers of Ecto are offering a whopping 20% discount off the regular price of a mere $17.95.

All you need to do for the discount is check out their announcement post between the sale dates and click on the big ol' discount badge image that's included. This should take you straight to their store where you can place Ecto in your shopping cart, and you should find that the discount code of “CHRISTMAS2005” has already been applied. That's all there is to it.

If you're unfamiliar with Ecto, check out our previous posts on this fantastic, full-featured blogging app or just head straight to the horse's mouth. For a quick run-down: Ecto is a robust blogging client with support for boatloads of blog systems. I think one of the app's main shining strengths is its customizability and media functionality. Ecto can pull images from iPhoto, song titles from iTunes, and you can easily enter affiliate information for link and revenue programs like Amazon's Associates system. Definitely go check it out if you've been looking for a better way to blog.

Excellent. Thanks for the explanation. I just tried to buy it, but for some reason it says that the coupon code is expired. So they must have made a mistake.

Thanks

Dirk: MarsEdit is a good basic blog editor, but I think Ecto differs in that it offers a lot more options for including information from other sources. Like I mention in the post, Ecto can pull info from iTunes and iPhoto, and easily include links for Amazon affiliate programs. It has a lot of support for setting up templates for including these different kinds of data, so it's very customizable and template-able. Check out their screenshots/features page for a better look at all it's capable of:

Hope this helps!

Anybody gotten the latest MarsEdit to work with Wordpress 1.5? It just keeps telling me something about timeout errors or other blah blah...

Anyone who knows how does it compare to MarsEdit? I would use it with MT3.2

Thanks

Get flock it's a good free alternative and has flicker support and all the other cool things you would need. I used it with wordpres and it supports most blogs and is free

I've been using ecto almost since day one. Although there are room for features (Flickr integration) this is the only blogging software I use. Highly recommended.
