I had the same problem (updating content), so I wrote a small script to download deltas from my Dropbox and parse them. Now I can edit my posts with vim:

That's a nice solution, though I've gone for a markdown admin widget instead.

Oooh, very nice, thanks for that!

One unintended (and great) side-effect of a Dropbox-hosted site is that you get mirrors for free (they all update together).
