Microsoft has released a new web editor - WebMatrix. This editor for Windows allows you to build websites using dozens of open source tools including WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla!. It sets up a web server on your hard drive and then installs the components (including databases) that you need for the tools you want on your site. Then, when you're ready to publish, you can connect to one of the many web servers that support direct connections with WebMatrix or use FTP to transfer to your own hosting provider.
