  Hi,

  Extremely disappointed to find out WP doesn’t support either Markdown or Textile. Unbelievable but true.

  Blogger doesn’t either.

  I’m therefore blogging on TypePad. I’ll know what I’ll be paying for.

  I, too, know what you’ll be paying for at Typepad. I have blogs on five different platforms, and abandoned Typepad almost immediately.

  It’s annoying leaving comments on Typepad. It uploads SLOWLY and is cumbersome with the way they require one to enter letters/numbers to prevent spam. I hope you can get a refund.

  I got a free trial at Typepad. I just don’t like it as much, and it isn’t as flexible at WP. Textile, I do use on a forum, and I hate it. Ugh, like HTML isn’t good enough.
