MarkItUp (beta) allows for you to use Markdown on your WordPress site.
It does this on a per-author basis and per-post. This means that you shouldn’t be accidently converting other people’s posts/pages into Markdown by accident!
Currently this wears the beta label because it could have little bumps which aren’t smoothed out just yet.

At the begining, Ghost was supposed to be a fork of WordPress. Then there was a talk of a plugin, that would give a next-generation admin panel for WordPress. But in the process it became a new blogging platform, built on Node.js. This plugin is an attempt to bring the nice and clean admin panel of Ghost back to the WordPress ecosystem.
Current features:
<ul>
<li>NEW PHP 5.2 Compatability</li>
<li>NEW Autosave support</li>
<li>NEW Featured image (post-thumbnail) support</li>
<li>NEW Custom fields (post-meta) support</li>
<li>NEW Experimental custom post types support (have to be enabled via Options page)</li>
<li>NEW Add new category dialog</li>
<li>NEW Tighter integration with WordPress (Admin Bar links, Edit links, etc.)</li>
<li>Posts/Pages Markdown editor</li>
<li>Media upload integration</li>
<li>Post tags support</li>
<li>Post category support</li>
<li>Post scheduling support</li>
</ul>

Gust

The best markdown editing experience in WordPress to date. As already mentioned having media support would put the icing on the cake. Echoing everyone else I do hope you continue developing the plugin.
