MS Word
I am never writing a draft for one of my entries in Word ever again. It turns everything into weird and special characters, I end up having to edit it three times or more. When I look at it in the Movable Type preview screen it looks fine, so then when it goes live all these little freaky thingees show up.
The post I made this morning also tracked back to someone elses site and now because I made edits to it a few times it is showing up as three seperate pings on his entry that I was referencing. The stinking thing is still messed up. Grrr.

Use word and then paste as plain text. That is what works for me.
Yeah, I know. I usually just write posts in NotePad or one of the other editors that I use from time to time like NoteTab. I just whipped out Word because I was on the train reading a doc from work and decided to start typing. So annoying.
