This might not be such a interesting topic but I used to think you can just go in and work on your blog with any computer or operating system. That was until my computer totally crashed and now I can only run my computer from a Ubuntu 7.04 live cd.

The computer you are blogging with does have a effect on your everyday blogging. Having all the tools in front of you when you need them can be great for your blog.

Here is a example: Since my computer has been broken I can not read rss feeds from blogs or blogging friends of mine. I have to go to every individual blog to read their blogs and skip the rss reading part of it.

Because I still have gimp I can resize my pictures for posting them on my blog but there are other limitations such as not being able to install deepest sender and quickly make a blog post.

Deepest sender and my other firefox extensions like stumbleupon which is a great part of my blogging for getting inspiration. Also learning from what other people have to say or what other stumblers like when it comes to blogging.

Another thing is not being able to keep your cookies and logins. That means everytime I want to quickly loging somewhere after I have restarted my computer I have to remember every username and password I have. And for security reasons they are all different.

Then it comes to uploads and downloads.  I cant upload anything because I have a upload folder on my computer but everytime I have to restart I lose my folder.

So it comes down to I need a new computer. I could work with a livecd for a long time but for productivity and blogging reasons I need a new computer.
