WordPress contains a nice WYSIWYG HTML editor, but it doesn’t fit with XHTML specifications.
I found out a cool method to generate valid XHTML code on WordPress; all what you need is Nvu and Vim.
First, use Nvu to edit your HTML text, and set you markup output to XHTML transitional:
Tools - Preferences - Advanced - […]

Nobody can deny Google’s importance: aside from the search engine, Google has the best free E-mail, you may get some dollars without doing anything (adsense) and it offers a sophisticated analyze system (urchin).
However, the ranking system is doubtious, Sup’Comian Boy has already posted about this; and it’s true for my blog too: Although the […]

Until 1862, there was no word in the Italian language called “mafia”.
Some people say it’s the acronym of “Morte Alla Francia, Italia Anela” (Death To the French Is Italy’s Cry). Another theory affirms that it’s an apocope of MiA FamilIA (my family) du to the “family’s system” of the mafia.

Fellag a toujours dénoncé les hitts (murs, en insistant sur les deux ‘t’), en inventant des mots tel que hittisme, hittologie, hitt-parade, …
En effet, rares sont les murs qui s’étaient fait une gloire ! Les murs le symbole de la séparation, de l’oppression et de la violence ! Même la fameuse muraille de […]

A friend asked me about my bad habits with computers; I did not know how to answer at that time.
Then, I figured that *my* bad habits on the PC start at 20:00 till the morning, when I have nothing serious to do: What is “normal” for me seems weird to the most of people.
Can […]

Reading Linux Gazette, I found a nice RDF with XSL document that maps a picture and describes its parts.
I have hacked on the original script in order to change the picture and encode it using GraphInside.
You may also map the image using circles, shapes, etc.
