I originally suggested using MS Word or other similar software to create your blog post project on Light and Color, and then copying to Blogger when you were ready to post. Many students have been struggling with this, especially around the issue of graphics and images.
I ran across one solution that helps a little, and I'm using it to create this post. It's an application called Windows Live Writer that you need to download and install on your computer. You will also need a Windows Live account, if you don't already have one.
Once you have it installed, you can use the "Add Weblog" function to add your class blog as the publishing destination. Stop by for help if you are interested.

Windows Live Writer, developed by Microsoft, is a desktop blog-publishing application that is part of the Windows Live range of products. It features WYSIWYG authoring, photo-publishing and map-publishing functionality, and is currently compatible with Windows Live Spaces, SharePoint blogs, Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, Wordpress, Telligent Community, PBlogs.gr, JournalHome, the MetaWeblog API, the Movable Type API, Blogengine and all blogs that support RSD (Really Simple Discoverability). I am a college sophomore with a dual major in Physics and Mathematics @ University of California, Santa Barbara. By the way, i came across these excellent physics flash cards. Its also a great initiative by the FunnelBrain team. Amazing!!
