To everyone angry at Adria for not "just asking them to stop": I am a female developer that attends 4-5 conferences per year. I have had experiences similar to that of Adria's, and I pretend I can ignore them. Why? Because confronting a guy (or guys) I don't know, in a room where my gender is clearly in minority, and explaining why I found something offensive is not an action I have been brave enough to take.

I applaud Adria for being braver than I could ever be. I am responsible for my actions (or lack of action), and you are responsible for yours. Hopefully, together we can keep our conferences and communities accepting and fun.

I would he interested in seeing the user feedback on this question.

I have always believed the answer to be 'No' but I am not the target market.

I am a developer that believes the entire point of a CMS is to provide a backend to add/update/edit content - not make design or layout decisions. Never give users a rope, they will hang themselves.

Very cool!

No <blink> tag?

Correction: *If the site comes back up..

If you have a backup of the site - you can install a caching plugin. That will help with the load until you can move to Cloudflare or move the hosting to WPEngine.

Only in Basecamp, where I wish I could use Markdown.

Thanks Dan!

Amazon is far from perfect, but they are the Walmart of the web. Small players need to be better, and hopefully know that Amazon.com is not the standard for which they should aim.

Very nice. I really appreciate the dropdown formatting selector box. I use Textile in Basecamp and find myself intermixing/confusing it's formatting with Markdown because the two are CLOSE but not exact.
