MarkdownNote and TextileNote for iPad released

September 29, 2010 by Dmitry

We are happy to announce our first two apps for iPad: MarkdownNote and TextileNote.

These programs let you write notes in Markdown or Textile markup languages, and instantly preview the result as you type in landscape mode.

Markdown and Textile are lightweight text markup languages that let you easily format your writing, while retaining the easy-to-read plain text appearance.

For example, to make text bold in Textile, just surround it with asterisks like this: *bold text*, or to make italic, use underscores: _italic text_. Language references are included with the apps.

Cathodique 1.3 released

July 23, 2010 by Dmitry

YouTube changed the way they deliver non-flash videos, and today Cathodique and other YouTube-related programs failed to load them. We fixed this issue in 1.3. If the automatic updater didn’t pick it up, click Cathodique > Check for Updates….

For now, we forced SD for all videos until we figure out how to load HD. Then we’ll post an updated version.

100,000 in one day

July 14, 2010 by Dmitry

What a milestone! I Write Like has been visited by 100,000 people yesterday. New tweets mentioning IWL are appearing every five seconds or so. Facebook is on fire, and “I write like” badges are appearing in blogs every minute. Margaret Atwood, who is in our database of famous writers, tweeted about it (apparently, she doesn’t write like herself… oops :). We’ll make sure to train the database with more of her works).

I’m honored by your interest and support. Have fun and stay tuned for more!
