Sweet Decay »

Rands review on notebooks:

The primary goal of a notebook is to get out of the way… to disappear. It does this by perfectly fitting into your writing situation. How accessible does it need to be? What notebook tangibles do you need? How will it withstand a beating?

If you haven’t already, be sure to read his review on gel pens.

Coda Review (Short & Late)

June 6, 2007 ~ Comments 0

Panic’s Coda caused quite a stir…and delivers on the hype.

A lot’s already been said about Panic’s Coda and I’m certainly late to the review party so I’ll keep this short.

Coda lives up to the hype, but still falls short for me as being a total replacement for my main development apps of Transmit and Textmate.

After using coda for a few weeks, where I’ve found it works best in my work flow is as the initial coding tool to do the first draft of HTML and CSS, translating my Photoshop design into a live design. After that, I find myself returning to Transmit and Textmate.
