Write for iPhone updated

#blogit #iphone #textediting #writing | Write for iPhone ([reviewed previously](http://brettterpstra.com/2013/02/16/ios-app-review-write-for-iphone/)) has updated for iOS 7 with an awesome new feature: inline Markdown formatting. Similar to what FoldingText and Texts do, it does an amazing job of showing your headlines, lists, emphasis, etc., as rich text while maintaining the plain text Markdown in the document. The Write update also includes some really good-looking new themes.

#blogit #ios #ipad #iphone #lyrics #poetry #writing | Poets are going to dig this, I think. It gives you syllable counts, rhyming dictionary and other tools for writing structured prose. I'm looking forward to trying it out for lyric writing. See also: [Verses](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/verses-notebook-+-rhyming/id488313870?mt=8&partnerId=30&siteID=vRL5rYo4h5A).

Draft. Write Better.

#blogit #markdown #writing | An online writing tool that you have to try. Version control and collaboration with full diff views, Markdown, publishing, tweeting (with stats), and export to local files, Dropbox, Google Drive, Evernote, Box, even an FTP server. Also, word count, reading level scores, image upload and linking, notes and comments, all in a plain text editor that's beautiful to look at. I have to list all of this because [the dev](https://twitter.com/natekontny) isn't documenting it nearly as fast as he's adding cool stuff!
