I finally realized I was probably never going to find the time to build a whole community platform for sharing Marked styles, and I don’t know how many people would participate anyway. So I started a Github repository for it.

Marked 2.2 is out, and it’s a pretty big update. Stability, speed and rendering fixes and improvements, as well as some new features. I’m working on a screencast about some of them, but it won’t be ready before my Thanksgiving trip. Soon.

I’m excited to announce that MarkdownEditing, the Sublime Text package I started to scratch a prose-in-Sublime itch, is now a community project. The repository has been turned over to the SublimeText-Markdown organization on GitHub, and development is being headed up by Ali Ayas.

TL;DR: Enable OmniFocus support in MailMate by turning on Experimental Features in General Preferences. Add Omnifocus.mmBundle to “~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Bundles/” and edit the “Commands/Add With Summary.mmCommand” plist to change the hotkey.

Begin 1.5 for iPhone has been released on the iTunes App Store. Begin is an iPhone app that lets you quickly gather todos and check them off or move them to “tomorrow” with simple gestures. I first mentioned Begin when it was released, and it’s progressed nicely with this version bump, which boasts quite a few refinements and new features:

I was joined this week by my buddy David Sparks (MacSparky) to talk about his new email field guide. I showed my typical-of-late lack of preparation and our conversation digressed into a few completely unrelated – albeit interesting – zones.

I had the pleasure of interviewing my buddy Jamie Phelps, a.k.a. jxpx777 on Systematic this week. The conversation covered magic, education, home entertainment and a wide variety of other topics. We even dug into our favorite text editor themes, just in case you’re nerdy enough to care.

This is a script I’m using with GeekTool to output a bar chart of stats for my blog to my desktop. It’s specifically geared toward the data returned by FeedPress, but I’m posting it because it can pretty easily be modified to work with any date-based data set. The concept is actually easy enough to use with any sequential data, and can be modified to output horizontal bars as well.

I’ve finished the biggest update to Planter thus far, and bumped it to version 2.0. I don’t know how popular this project is or ever will be, but I still find it useful enough to keep in good shape.
