#api #blogit #converter #markdown #plaintext | Ostensibly it's a Chrome plugin that translates between various "humane" markup formats (Markdown, Textile, MediaWiki, etc.). It's [Pandoc](http://www.johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/) on steroids. The cool part, though, is that it has an [API](http://marksy.arc90.com/learn) that you can incorporate into all kinds of tools (e.g. the [Sublime Text package](https://github.com/thomscode/Marksy-Convert)).

Skype says my application will stop working with Skype in December 2013, why is that?

#api #blogit #podcasting #skype | Skype has announced that they're shutting off the Desktop API in December. I checked with the developers of some of my most-used 3rd party apps (Shush, Call Recorder, Audio Hijack Pro), and for the most part everything's cool.
