A random collection of stuff that I want online.

I made myself a CSS stylesheet for a simple markdown viewer that I use for local documents, and I quite liked it. Mostly because I copied the look and feel from elsewhere -- I am, indeed, an awful visual designer. So I thought it might be nice to design myself a new blog / homepage around this.
One fun side-effect of this is that I'm actually able to mock up the template of my blog in Markdown, rather than HTML.
I'm sort of addicted to Markdown at the moment; I'm injecting it into all kinds of inappropriate places in my life. For example, it's become the front-end to my general-purpose word processor, the back-end of which is, of course, TextMate.
Once I mocked up the design of the site in Markdown, I turned it into a proper template, but it was useful for the initial sketch-out.
