    I love Vim and Textmate

    by

    If you follow me you’ll notice that I’ve been playing with Vim lately. For almost a year now I’ve been a TextMate fan but something about Vim just called to me.

I’ve built a huge reference of code that I need to reuse for many projects and digging through the old projects is getting un-manageable so I need a solution that keeps my reusable code organized and…

  • EasyTask Review: If Only

    by

    Recently I reviewed The Hit List and while it is a great application I found a number of areas that gave me pause in using it long term. Since then I’ve been using EasyTask which appealed because of it’s cross-platform nature and the offsite sync, not to mention the price which includes versions for both…

  • Review of The Hit List: It came with a Bundle

    by

    In Episode 2 @iKitty mentioned that she was using Things as a GTD/TODO app based on a recommendation from me. I used to use Things as my choice for quite a while but have now switched over to The Hit List and thought I’d give you a run down of the features. While this started…

    The Great Windows Code Editor Hunt: Komodo Edit

    by

    Second up on my list of code editors to review is Komodo Edit. No we’re not talking about the paid IDE but the free version. The Good Komodo Edit is developed on the Mozilla platform which means it’s a cross-platform code editor just like Firefox is a cross-platform web browser. As I said when I…

    The Great Windows Code Editor Hunt: Dreamweaver

    by

    This is the second post in The Great Windows Code Editor Hunt series. Today we’ll look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. The Good Dreamweaver has come a long way for coders since CS3. When I used the CS3 version it was barely tolerable as a code editor. I don’t remember why at this point…
