So, one thing which annoys me a bit about writing blog entries is the way the horrible markup for links screws up the formatting of the entries as I see it in the editor. It makes a couple of words take up a whole line, and screws up the word-wrapping, and makes things unreadable. Which sucks. So I wrote a cool new plugin that lets me instead write things like:

<!-- links:

Which seems much more pleasant. I had actually thought there was already a plugin that did this, but apparently not. I certainly can’t see anything like it now.
