Very quick video of the latest Micro.blog for Mac with new blog post summary field. You can type your own summary that will be used in the timeline and cross-posting, or have it generate one for you.

@manton Nice! I've just been trying to figure out if there's a way to have more control over the cross-posting test for blog posts and this seems perfect.

Is there any way to do this with MarsEdit? Maybe with 'custom fields’?

@jaylyerly The next version of MarsEdit has support for setting summaries! I’m not sure when it’s coming out but @danielpunkass posted a beta… Unfortunately I can’t find the download link right now.

@manton @danielpunkass@micro.blog Excellent! Will be on the lookout.

@jaylyerly Hopefully I’ll release the official update soon, but if you want to try it early you can download a beta here: redsweater.com/marsedit/…

Wonderful! Available on the web editor as well?

Manton Reece

@apoorplayer Yes, it should be basically the same on the web.

Jarrod Blundy

Cool! Although, shouldn’t that box be labeled in some way?
