Federico Viticci mentioned my little TitleCase project in a MacStories post recently, but I never got around to officially announcing it.

It seemed like the kind of info that might be of use to the world.

I made a little bookmarklet this morning for cleaning up highlighted code blocks in web pages for copying into my notes. You just click it on any web page and all blocks and elements will be turned into plain text.
