  I’d like a way to download all the posts in my blog to my hard drive for future reference. Is there a means of doing this other than copying each one separately and pasting into Word ?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If you export your blog, you will have a record of all posts, pages comments, tags, categories, but it is in a WXR format which means you cannot really read it. Well you can, but it has a lot of code in it as well

  My suggestion would be to get a blog client such as Windows Live Writer, BlogDesk or Ecto which will retrieve all your posts and they will be in a form that you can actually read (via the program).

  If I install Live Writer windows live mail gets updated and I hate the result; I could not get BlogDesk to work; I could not find “Ecto” – every link to it ded ends. So unless you have some better advice I’ll have to download and import into Word all 25 blog entries by hand.

  How about an offline browser then? (As opposed to an offline editor).
