If you use both Marked and Jekyll (or Octopress), you may want to preview your posts accurately in Marked before publishing. The first obvious step is to link your screen.css file as a Custom Style:

As you may have noticed, this site has changed. I find it significantly less ugly now, but the changes run much deeper than that.

This is part three of a three-part series covering some of my favorite apps for 2012. So far I’ve posted about my favorite Mac apps and my favorite iOS and Mac combo apps. This post covers some of my favorite iOS-only apps for the year.

Well, my incredibly late Christmas episode of Systematic is up. It features an interview with Jesse Grosjean, the mad text genius behind TaskPaper, WriteRoom, PlainText and FoldingText. What more do I need to say?

This is part of a 3-part series covering some of my favorite apps for 2012. Yesterday I posted about some of my favorite Mac apps this year. This post is dedicated to apps available on both Mac and iOS with sync capabilities. This is by no means an all-encompassing list, but rather a few standouts.

This will be a 3-part series celebrating some of my favorite apps in 2012: Mac apps, Mac & iOS crossover apps and iOS apps. These are apps that I use regularly. Not all of them are new, and it’s not even close to a comprehensive list; just a few I thought worth mentioning.

A quick PSA: I thought Marked’s price was stuck at $.99 for the week, but my initial plan of a slow ramp back up to $3.99 is in effect. It should still be 50% off today, but the price will be climbing so act soon!

I’m taking part in AppyFridays this week. Due to the fact that changes to pricing and app updates will be unavailable from the 21st through the 28th (everyone deserves a vacation), Marked is going to be on sale all the way through Christmas. For just 99¢, you can get the Markdown love you deserve this holiday.

Jim Dalrymple (The Beard) of The Loop and Amplified joined me this week to talk about the serious business of rock and roll, party planning and great apps, with only a small diversion down gun control avenue.

Calendar Paste is a handy new app from Christian Tietze (one of the original Notational Velocity hackers). It lets you create event templates for Apple’s Calendar apps on your iPhone. Set the title, location and duration, and then when you need to schedule it just choose it from the list and pick a date and time.

1Password is almost always the first app I install on a new machine. It’s my key to opening all of the necessary accounts and it holds all of my software licenses. It’s literally indispensable. I’m going to just go ahead and assume you use it or are at least familiar with it and move along.

I’m horrible at keeping track of anything without a little help. It’s why I love my computer and my iOS devices so much. One area I’m absolutely incompetent in is keeping tallies of things in realtime. The slightest distraction and all of the numbers get jumbled up and I forget where I was. If you’ve listened to Systematic, you’ve probably heard it happen.
