I've been playing around with Ipsum, the new app from developer Sam Ghobril, and it's a unique app that could be a great fit for some people who like the idea of keeping a journal, but can never make it stick. Ipsom's one line
There are few apps on my Mac that I find as indispensable as Alfred. In terms of apps that help me get my work done, it's right up there with Photoshop, Atom, and Ulysses in letting me be as productive as I need to be. This is why
Television Time is an app that allows you to keep track of your television shows in a simple, elegant way, and it is the best TV trading app I have ever used. It achieves this status by being remarkably easy to use, having a particular killer feature that I haven&
