the whole world burns

GPL version of Movable Type coming

 #

Dual-licensed, though, and not everyone is happy to sign their copyright away. Hooray for forking?

incredibly slick YUI-based comment system

Allows comments to be placed anywhere, purple-number like. First the revamped Slashdot comments and now this; awesome to (finally) be seeing some innovation in this space.

Best XML-RPC blogging tool I've ever used, even including (somehow?) a live preview in the blog's template.

The Whole World Burns is the rephrase miniblog, containing links and other miscellaneous trifles.
