Have you tried to connect to any of blogging enigines? When I connect to blogger, I become error message. I don’t know aobut other engines, but with blogger this feature doesn’t work at all. Also in list of image storages is nothing for blogger.
I agree seems Blogger is no longer working with MS Word.
