Day One - Uses

Day One is a fantastic, refreshingly polished journaling app from Paul Mayne for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. I love it for general journaling (aka, a diary), but its flexible nature lends itself to any number of uses from a travel log, a work journal, baby books, a workout or diet log, and much more.

Announcing Searchpath

Been itching to get a good search box on your Tumblr? Manton Reece just gave you a backscratcher (test it on the search box in the sidebar of his post). Bonus points: it acts as a text backup service for all your posts, and the service costs $8 a month.

Just sign up at Searchpath and paste one line of JavaScript in your description or wherever you want it to go. There is a healthy dose of polish to how Reece’s search features work, too. I might just pick this up.
