This is Your Brain on Vim

This is funny, and fits well with my experience of Vim (though I'm an only an intermediate level user). It's true that Vim is a little bit addictive, and you keep finding yourself coming back to it.

Mac Must Have: Hazel | The Brooks Review

I bought Hazel and while ago, and have been meaning to blog about it. This is a very eloquent explanation of the beauty and usefulness of Hazel. I have a Hazel rule (using Applescript) which imports PDF files placed in a 'Receipts to File' folder on my desktop into a Receipts group in DevonThink Pro, then trashes the original. I use that a lot.

I, Reader by Alexander Chee - The Morning News

Great article about reading, books and ebooks. I like books as physical objects, but only because I associate them with the pleasure of reading. It's the actual text which counts, and anything which helps you to read more and read more comfortably has got to be a good thing. We've also got a similar bookshelf problem in our house...

briancarper.net :: Emacs isn't for everyone

Thoughtful discussion of the trials and tribulations of learning Emacs. I've found it very hard to get to grips with properly, or at least to the same level of proficiency as Vim.

Iconfactory : Home : Filing a Flight Plan

Interesting insight into Iconfactory's changing design process for Twitterrific. I think that the market for a good Mac client is still wide open, despite Twitter's acquisition of Atebits, so I'm glad to see that Iconfactory have concrete plans to redevelop Twiterrific for the Mac.
