Looks pretty sweet. Markdown really is coming into a golden age, its everywhere: git readmes, stackoverflow posts, i'm even using it to write my presentations in these days! Love it :)



I'm just wondering why Creole wiki syntax failed on this particular point: for me, the syntax is much more consistent and easier to parse.


Markdown took email/mailing list/usenet conventions and turned them into syntax.


The HN crowd isn't everyone. Markdown is just another markup among hundreds.
