The other day I killed a post to my blog just before I posted. Basically I was doing some research in other tabs in my browser and I started closing the tabs. I inadvertently closed the tab that contained my posting. This is a real id10t mistake for which I have no one to blame but myself.
So now I am writing all my posts in Word and then copying them to my MT post and saving it, this should save me the headache of having to retype the post. I gave up on retyping the post last time because I was so frustrated. Of course, Word is not the ideal bloging tool, mainly because of those damn smart quotes.
What I would really like to see is MT save my posts even if I close the window by mistake. My hosting provider has SquirrelMail installed and it does something like this. If I leave the Compose page without sending an email, then go back again, it will give me the option of recovering my previous email. It is a plug-in for SquirrelMail that enables this. A quick search of the MT Plugin Directory didn’t turn up anything similar for MT, but I could be missing it. Does anyone know if this exists?

The worst part, is I hate, absolutely hate, rewriting posts. I also hate writing posts in Word, but it looks like I am back to doing that.
