Or: a quick review of the reasons we chose CKEditor over TinyMCE.

By default, content management systems such as Drupal (which we're using for this web site) expect users to format their posts with HTML markup. This can be inconvenient and deter casual contribution from members of the community who aren't completely comfortable with HTML.

Javascript-based WYSIWYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) editors to the rescue!

The 2 most annoying things about Amazon EBS (Elastic Block Storage) I have found, is that there is no support to auto-attach an EBS on instance launch, and the need to manually mount an EBS when it's attached.

If the above annoys you as well, you're in luck! The first annoyance has been solved in the TurnKey Hub (private beta soon to be announced - request an invite here), and the second, well, is solved by EBSmount.

I just finished upgrading the WYSIWYG editor on the web site from FCKEditor to CKEditor, which is FCKEditor's less offensively named successor.

Improvements

• A noticeably faster, more lightweight code-base which was rewritten from the ground up.

• Full-screen mode works beautifully now. I love how this instantly removes all the clutter and lets me focus on the content I'm editing without being distracted by the rest of the web site.
