It’s all text! — Firefox Add-on.
I’ve just discovered ‘It’s all text!’, a firefox add-on that makes it easier to edit text on the web.
It’s a pretty simple idea; any textareas (those boxes used for composing email, writing forum posts, editing wikis, etc) get a little button;
click the button and it’ll let you edit the same text in a proper text editor. When you save the file or close the editor, it copies all the text back into the web page.
All of this means it’s a lot easier to edit text on the web;
especially useful for emails and, well, blog posts.

Ooh gosh, that’s really good. Now I can use vi to edit posts, just like I do for other stuff I write. Hurrah!

Good, innit? For all those who yearn to to M-x replace-regex in forum comments… I should probably get out more.
