I’ve released SmartyPants 1.0, a plugin which filters the entry titles and content through SmartyPants, a typographical filter by John Gruber which does things like curly quotes and proper hyphens. This plugin uses PHP Markdown, a PHP implementation by Michel Fortin.

Apparently my Qwest connection has about 3M download, and 512k upload. Not so good for a service that claims “up to 7 Mbps download” (I’m getting 3) and “896 Kbps upload” (I’m getting 512k).
