This is designed for web authoring but I use a lot for rough drafts of structured text which I can do really quickly with Markdown. Better than some other similar apps because you can see what happening to the structure almost in real time. You can use Textile if you prefer. It all just works. I think it will be great for blogging, I just haven't got around to that using MMW yet.
