I’ve been trying out and letting go of code snippet managers since the early days of Code Collector Pro. I think I’ve tried just about every solution out there (I think Quiver and SnippetsLab are excellent applications), but I always come back to keeping all of my snippets in a folder of Markdown files.

Sanebox is one of my favorite services, keeping my email manageable and providing a bunch of handy tools.

A big thanks to MeisterTask for sponsoring BrettTerpstra.com this week! I recently posted about their latest feature Agenda — a.k.a. “one board to rule them all.” This week is focused on the launch of their most requested feature of all time: Timeline, MeisterTask’s very own version of a Gantt chart.

Since I last wrote about Fish (the Friendly Interactive SHell), I’ve become a full-on convert. I actually stumble a bit when I use Bash now, with so many nice Fish features ingrained in my muscle memory.
