Apparently, there's some trouble with the iCloud sync. The developers are working with Apple to resolve it before the tes...

I use Dokuwiki on my desktop computer to keep a story bible. It works great for that, and there's a zillion extensions to make it easy to customize. I've used it on and off for years, long before I di...
Some useful lines to add to your .vimrc if you're going to try VOoM:
" override syntax selection for Markdown extensions
autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.md set syntax=markdown

Seriously, if you're using org-mode and Markdown, just about anything that gives you a shell would do. It's fairly simple to turn a Chromebook into a full Linux box, although you'd probably want to av...
best outliner you use? (2018)
5/22/2018
If you're like me, and want a console-mode outliner but can't stand Emacs (I've given it several tries over the years), there's always Tines. I've not been doing a whole lot with the development latel...
Brackets text editor
5/22/2018
I used Brackets extensively, until early this year. I moved to Atom for its tabbed files and wider variety of plug-ins. Brackets does have a better Markdown previewer, IMO.
Both work very well with a...
I was grumbling to myself, "I already have Atom set up as a Markdown editor and it works great, why would I need this?"
Then I saw the iOS (and Android) links. If you can pass files back and forth be...

Habitica, anyone?

habitica.com/
It's a way to gamify your to-do list, plus any lasting habits you want to establish. I'm considering signing up… has anyone given it a shot?

Tell us about your book
12/10/2017
Oh, you had to open *that* can of worms, eh? :-D
I have about a dozen books on Amazon. The big seller is a fantasy series, but there are others. Most of the fiction is geared for teens, but there's a...

Workload tracking?
10/20/2017
In the last six weeks, my workload went from "fairly light" to "OMGWTF." Until this week, stuff was piling in faster than I could get it out, and I can bang out the work when I've got it lined up. I u...
Word document creation
9/30/2017
If you can get a reasonably clean HTML output from any of your tools, you can import that into Word and save the result as a Word file.
Do Chromebooks support Java? If so, there's Freemind (freemind.org). That's my go-to mind-mapper on the desktop.
I'm planning on buying a Chromebook once my 2007 MacBook (now running Linux) dies. Som...

Trello is being featured on the Mac App Store now. I'd give it a shot if it wasn't a subscription model.
