Using Evernote and Dropbox
Back in March, on the sixth episode of the 512 Podcast, I spoke with Myke about my moving to Evernote for notes and “resources” management.

A Better ‘Amercia’
Mitt Romney’s new iPhone app allows users to put a banner over their photo, showing their support for the jackass millionaire business tycoon presidential candidate.

But I can recognize software crafted with care and attention to detail. Diet Coda immediately stands out as one of those apps where pixels aren’t just there to fill the screen — they’re the epitome of design enhanced for function.
Drafts 1.2 Released
One of my favorite iOS utilities just got updated.
The new version adds sharing text to Facebook, Evernote and OmniFocus’ notes field. I’m already loving the new additions.
