Developing Movable Type Plugins: Timothy Appnel published a fantastic guide to developing plugins for Movable Type. He discusses adding simple tags to the templating system, creating text formatting plugins, and using the data persistence framework to store plugin data.
KeynoteUser.com: Tips, troubleshooting, etc. relating to Apple's Keynote software. My big complaint is that it can't export to HTML. But the data is all stored in XML, so it shouldn't be that hard to write something to export a presentation to HTML. Right?
How to Do Stuff: Aaron Swartz's How to Do Stuff series looks very promising: well-written instructional pieces without a lot of technical jargon. He also mentions atx, his text-formatting language, with a processor written in Python. (Which could be wrapped in Inline::Python to create a Movable Type text formatting plugin.)
