Starting out

I thought I'd start this blog as a way to get us all sharing our experiences. You can set this to ping your email every time there's a new post...do so, and you'll get the latest and greatest from all of us pretty much in real time!

I'm going to share an app I'm playing with called Textilus.  It's a rich text format creation and editing app that claims to be able to move seamlessly between the app and Word/Pages/etc because all those programs translate RTF easily.  It seems, well, rich...there are ways to add bullets, bold, underline,  and all the other features you would like to have in a word processing program as well as multiple fonts, etc.  It also seems to have the ability to add pictures if you have the premium version ($4.99)...maybe worth it.  I even wrote this in Textilus, transferred it to a Word document and then put it up here!

    What are the direct advantages to using this compared to say, Google Drive?

      i couldn't figure out a way to have changes to a google drive document automatically emailed out to all who shared the document.

      Textilus will notify via email? That seems nice.

    I have used the Skydrive function that Microsoft offers to access your files and apoplications like Word and Excel online. It's pretty awesome, you can do most things you want to do on a regular computer. Unfortunately it doesn't work without Internet connection. Therefore I can't use it when I am over in the Main LC.
