Built in would be cool though. Either a custom field or just a shortcode wrapper. I think there are a few plugins for code snippets. Built in would be cool though.

Dropping huge amounts of markup in my actual posts (even with a plugin) is sucky. Is there a WP plugin for displaying code that has built-in snippet management? Like where I can add code independent from a post? Shit, maybe that should be a feature of my theme. A custom post type for code.

Something with built in support for code snippets and what not. Also, I understand the appeal of the github snippets, but your old code snippet stuff was so much prettier.

I don't particularly do this often, especially needing to track clickthroughs (if I do, the target link usually does so), so something lightweight was fine for me.

(perhaps a rhetorical question, since if you thought it wasn't better you wouldn't be doing it). The nice thing about a plugin like that is you get an organized view of all your redirects.
