This is an interesting thread. I have a few writing efforts coming up that required coordinated timelines and events.

MWeb for Mac users

Cool. The new update is nice.
Curious: "MWeb is a professional Markdown ... app" Just what would be a good amateur Markdown app?

Interesting. Thank you. Looks like informationtamers.com and mind-mapping.org are both registered by the same "Roy Grubb", and topicscape.com and a few others he discusses are also registered by him...
Journaling, a simplistic view
7/22/2018
DayOne entries are stored in JSON. That's not really "proprietary" -- no more than XML is "proprietary". JSON and XML are formatted based on configurable, public, well-document and open source stan...

That's a very good point. On the other hand, although I have no special depth of understanding of iOS development, I've observed that making an app work effectively on both macOS and iOS has complet...

DEVONthink has NO proprietary formats for documents. That seems to be an persistent urban legend. Files are stored in DEVONthink as their original files and are never transformed by anyone other tha...
