Quando uma boa ideia não funciona

A boa ideia que não funciona, neste caso, é o Desk PM - o aplicativo que escolhí para escrever os posts para meus blogs; quando comecei a usá-lo eu o achava excelente e realmente me sentia motivado a escrever mais e mais; mas, de repente, o Desk PM começou a cair demais, não consigo nem incluir um link sem um crash; agora, com a versão mais atual, a manipulação de imagens ficou muito ruim e não posso sequer ajustar o tamanho de uma foto pois o Desk PM insiste em rotacioná-la. O desenvolvedor do aplicativo (john.do) é muito solícito e promete corrigir todos os problemas, mas isso pode demorar, pois ele é um só e possui outras atribuições profissionais além de manter o Desk PM.

E eu prometí a ele continuar tentar a usar o Desk PM. Vejam o último e-mail que lhe enviei e sua resposta:

John,

It's hard for me to say this but I give up using Desk PM.

I was testing both Desk PM and Blogo and I decided for Desk PM because I liked it and also to support an indie developer.

I was happy keeping my blog revitalized and updated (http://www.mdalves.com.br) but suddenly Desk PM started to crash; I try to close a file - it crashes; I try to add a link - it crashes; try to resize an image - the image disappears and I have to close the file (with a crash) and re-open it to add the image again.

And now, after the latest update, I feel it's too hard to handle images; I just want to to resize an image but Desk PM start to rotate it at every click and I don't know how to stop it; when it stop by itself the image is usually on the wrong position.

I have just published a post and image is not there!!! But it IS in the Desk PM file!!!!

When I am ready to publish the post (after stressful and not pleasure moments of writing) I have to remember the tags/categories I use in my - why Desk PM just doesn't make it easier for me showing the list of tags?

I am sure you will fix all the bugs and enhance Desk PM with new features; I promise to keep it installed and updated and may return to it when I believe it will really stimulated me to write and not the opposite.

Regards, good luck and a happy new year.
