I use Ecto for my blogging activities these days and it certainly supports Blogger. I imagine MarsEdit must do but I can't vouch for it.<BR/><BR/>Anyways Ecto will provide you with HTML and WYSIWYG(ish) modes and other goodies like offline editing etc. MarsEdit will surely offer similar features.<BR/><BR/>Sad you can't make it to the Google Conference would've been good tech and good socializing! I fear I won't have time to cash in my beer tokens on this trip so I'll save them for another occasion :)<BR/><BR/>Dan.PetrolHeadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06404572533828179184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655567.post-25547849398166193572007-06-20T21:56:00.001-07:002007-06-20T21:56:00.001-07:00Oh - dan - wiki syntax ideal, but I could make due...Oh - dan - wiki syntax ideal, but I could make due with something that just made it easier.

I'm lazy and like to link to stuff. <BR/><BR/>Wiki syntax would be ideal. A link is like this:<BR/>[Dan rocks|http://www.dancres.com].<BR/><BR/>BTW, I tried to register for that Seattle Google thing, but was too late. Would have been nice to kick it with you. Portland is only 3 hours drive if you want to come collect on some debts ;)<BR/><BR/>Mikefuzzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04442788840388847156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655567.post-57806942958564545842007-06-20T14:01:00.000-07:002007-06-20T14:01:00.000-07:00Mike,What platform are you on?OS X, Windows, Linux...Mike,<BR/><BR/>What platform are you on?<BR/><BR/>OS X, Windows, Linux????<BR/><BR/>And do you really want Wiki syntax or just some way to blog whilst avoiding HTML tags?<BR/><BR/>Dan.PetrolHeadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06404572533828179184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655567.post-72709260644524613912007-06-20T12:18:00.000-07:002007-06-20T12:18:00.000-07:00he step up on mehe step up on meAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655567.post-41592718150996346912007-06-20T10:29:00.000-07:002007-06-20T10:29:00.000-07:00Brother, you're as allergic to HTML as I am to har...Brother, you're as allergic to HTML as I am to hardware. ;)<BR/><BR/>Since all the cool kids use Macs, you should probably try Gruber's Markdown.<BR/><BR/>It seems like a low-hanging fruit with all the AJAX for someone to write a WYSIWYG text editor for the web.
