If you use SearchLink at all, you’ve probably noticed that the Mac App Store searches have stopped working. This happened the day iOS 7 came out, and it still hasn’t resolved. iTunes App Store links are functioning better, but the MAS returns no results.

Marked 2.1 will be out in the next week (free update for Marked 2 customers), featuring faster and more accurate document statistics.

Even refreshing after an edit is possible.

We talked about the play, the writing tools and processes, and Quakers, oddly enough.
