I also make heavy use of Text Expander, both on Mac and on iOS. If I'm on my iPhone and need to make quick changes on the go, I likewise use Elements.Įlements is just light and easy and killer for Markdown, and BBEdit is a beast. That lets me keep working no matter where, or on what device I'm on. If I have my druthers, however, and I'm out and about without my Mac, I write in Elements, which is pointed at the same Dropbox folder I store my BBEdit work in.

When I have to collaborate with Kevin from CrackBerry or Phil from Android Central, I'll have to use Google Docs.
I write in John Gruber's Markdown, so while the text is plain, it's also formatted and highly portable. I don't even use 1% of its potential, but what I do use is so damn powerful I can pretty much accomplish anything text-based that I can imagine. When I'm sitting down to write, all proper and formal like, it's almost always in BBEdit on the Mac. As I've said many times before, it's time-shift for text. Drafts lets me type or dictate ideas without having to worry about where it'll eventually end up. When attention isn't an issue, I use Drafts for the same purpose. That syncs between iOS and Mac, so at the very least I don't forget about or lose ideas (it's become a natural language clipboard of sorts). If I'm driving or otherwise occupied, I use Siri to quickly jot stuff down into Notes. I use a combination of tools, depending on what I'm doing and where I'm trying to do it. While Byword may not be the most powerful solution around, it does all I need it to do and it's a great option for students writing papers, editors, or anyone else that wants the flexibility of writing from multiple devices. Since Byword supports markdown, I've already gotten all my links done ahead of time. Then when I get home, I just copy and paste everything where it needs to be and embed images. Instead of lugging around my MacBook Pro, I simply take my iPad and a keyboard case. While I spend most of my time writing on my iMac, there are times I want to get out of the house or the office and write at Starbucks or another local coffee shop. It uses iCloud to keep your documents in sync across all devices and has apps for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. There's just been too much heartache when it comes to saving work and getting errors. It's very seldom I actually write within an actual content management system such as Wordpress or Drupal. I do a good majority of my writing on my iMac. And it's a clever gateway drug to BBEdit, to boot. It makes it easier for folks who don't have the coin to buy BBEdit to use some of the same features.

I also appreciate that Bare Bones makes available TextWrangler, a free text editor that uses the same core technology as BBEdit. I admit that I'm only using a small percentage of BBEdit's capabilities, but it's so finely customized for my workflow, I can't imagine using anything else. At this point I'm pretty hard-wired to need BBEdit to be productive. No other text editor comes close for me when it comes to the flexibility and power I'm looking for to edit and transform text. I've written for the Web for almost two decades now, and I've used BBEdit for almost that long.

So I do almost all my writing on my Macs - a Mac Pro, MacBook Pro with Retina Display, or MacBook Air, depending on where I am. Maybe if I had an external keyboard it would be different, but trying to write anything longer than a quick e-mail or a tweet using the on-screen keyboard is difficult for me. If you have any problems, comment below and answer all your questions as soon as possible.I have tried, and failed, to use my iPad for writing ever since I bought it. I hope you find this tutorial easy to follow. It is especially useful when there are many people in the FaceTime call. I really love how a person's video gets bigger when he starts talking, because it helps identify him. While Apple has been late for the group video call, its implementation is one of the best I've seen in the business. FaceTime with multiple contacts using Group FaceTime However, once you make a group FaceTime call, it is saved in your recent call history, allowing you to connect to the entire group without having to go through the above process over and over again. Unfortunately, there is no way to start a group FaceTime call on Mac using an iMessage group as of now. Add up to 32 contacts and then click on the "Video" button to start the call.
