Bolggers need this

Are you a blogger ? Are you a technical blogger ? Have you faced difficulties pasting your code in to your post???

For me, all the above is just true. AS am using blogger I faced that problem when trying to paste some c# code into one of my posts.The problem came from the html validation that blogger makes.So whenever you have some html character like "<,> and &" you will need to html encode them otherwise you will get an error. Postable is a simple site allowing you to paste your code and generates a friendly output code by converting all the special characters to their HTML Encodes. After converting your code using Postable you would probably use the <code> tag to distinguish your post text from your code.
