bedeviled mojo slop

Hop on over to Daring Fireball to grab Markdown 1.0b4. If Markdown changes its license I'll include it along with blojsom. However, for blojsom 2.14, we will have the Markdown plugin which can call out to the Markdown script. It's a separate download for you, but if you want the Markdown, that's how it's gotta be. No big whoop!

So, today I digged up HTMLArea. It seems as if 3.0 RC1 was made available on March 1st, 2004. It's improved quite a bit. The configuration and installation is improved. The fallback to a standard textarea if the requesting browser isn't supported is also improved. So, once 3.0 final is available, I'll think about including it with blojsom. It's BSD licensed which is good. I use it on an internal blog and the WYSIWYG experience is so much nicer than other editors. So, we'll see...

This is in response to a CNN article, "Korn takes on the music business", in which Davis says the following:

"I think one of the reasons why the music business is failing is because there is nothing out there new that is exciting for kids to get into," he adds. "These corporations only put so many bands out, and they play those same 12 bands over and over again on the radio. It kills it."

Dear Jonathan Davis,

News flash: You've been playing the same 12 songs over and over again. How do they go again? Boom-dow-chugga-chugga-chugga-dow. Lather, rinse, repeat. That about right?

And maybe 12 is a stretch.

Sincerely,

David Czarnecki

PS- You're a big rich rock band, so please purchase some effects other than a pitch shifter and an octaver.
