I cannot even imagine why you think *this* syntax is hard to read, write, or remember.

# Markdown has lots of benefits:

* It is concise
* It is very human-readable
* In many cases, it looks like what you want.  It is designed to replace characters that you would normally use to emphasize or organize text in plain text.
* Noah doesn't like it, so it is probably good.

Sure, markdown can start to become more [complex](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax), but that is the nature of showing all content in any markup language.  You can't "hide" information such as the previous url like you can when the markdown is ultimately parsed.  The same goes for any markup out there.
