Marked 2 has been fixed up for Yosemite. The working version is available immediately for non-Mac App Store customers through download and automatic update. MAS users will have to wait for the App Store stamp of approval to be granted, and based on recent turnaround times that may be a week or more. It’s coming, though.

Drafts 4 is out as a Universal app. I’ll leave it to the experts to offer the full review, and just mention that there’s a very cool new feature in it: JavaScript-based text modification actions.

I do two podcasts on 5by5 (Systematic and Overtired), but I’ve admitted many times that I rarely listen to podcasts. I’m often asked why (and how) that is, and I’d like to share the results of some self-examination.

I haven’t been announcing my podcasts and appearances the way I used to. I really should, there have been a lot of fun things happening. First, I was on Philip Mozolak and Christopher Radliff’s podcast Preservation State along with Jason Snell. It was a fun conversation. I don’t even remember how I met Philip now, but he’s a great guy and I enjoy our conversations. And our Super Stickman Golf 2 games.

I reviewed AeroPress Timer last year, and have been using it ever since. Version 2 is out now, and it’s definitely worth a look.

I’ve built Marked 2 to be a tool for professional writers. More than just a Markdown previewer, it boasts features for improving your writing and keeping track of advanced statistics. Marked works with Scrivener and Ulysses 3 too, showing you compiled versions of your complete document as you work, and seeing changes instantly as you make them.

I’m happy to have PopClip from Pilotmoon as a sponsor this week. PopClip has become one of my favorite utilties on my Mac, and I feel lost without it.

I’ve been sick and out of commission this week, but I have a couple of finished projects to share as I find the energy. This first one is called “Answered,” a bookmarklet for saving StackExchange answers to your favorite note/organization app.
