It’s a dreary morning in SoCal and I’ve been playing in Windows.
Why I don’t like WYSISWYG editors
I really like the idea of WYSIWYG editors. I do. You drag things around, make it look the way you want, press a button and like magic, you have a nice looking HTML document.
I also really like a sense of order. Not in all things, which you might know if you have ever seen my desk. But in the kitchen and my closet. And my HTML code.

Not relating to anything to else that I have posted here in the last few days days. Honest!
I was working on the film transfer edit and was wondering if I had a happy birthday song. Instead of looking for that, I only searched for happy. The results are above.
Then Josh replied that he only had 7, and I got a reply on Facebook that only had 5.
I thought this could be a fun little game we could play. How much happy is in your music? Mac users, bust out skitch and make a fun badge, like this.
Come on, let us know!
More and more I’m finding cool stuff. Cool useful stuff. Cool useful free stuff. Handy apps or websites that don’t cost a thing but have lots of value, at least to me.
So, instead of sitting here being mad about not being at the New Media Expo in Vegas this weekend, I will share my current favorites.
- Skitch. This one has actually been bumped to living in the dock for me I’m using it so much lately. I would, for sure, pay for this.
- Fluidapp. I’ve heard that SSBs will be a part of the next version of OSX. Until then, there is this and it’s awesome.
- Quicksilver. I’m lost without this. Let’s me work without thinking or looking at the keyboard. Stuff. Just. Happens.
- Viddler. Have you seen the new features? Check out my new player! If there was a “Pro” account (like flickr), I would totally pony up.
Sure there are other free apps out there for the Mac, but none of them wow me like these. If you don’t use them, I believe it would be well worth your time.
