Pastie: Your Friendly Neighbourhood Code Pasting Thingy.

April 8, 2008 – 5:07 pm

As someone who tends to work in the design field (ahem, work.judsoncollier.com) alot,  and especially with tech savvy clients, it’s really annoying to have to transfer code via email. It takes awhile, and is really disruptive, becasue most of my normal communication with clients is through AIM.

And then I was introduced to Pastie.

Pastie is a nifty little app that makes sharing code awesome and powerful.

Basically the idea is that you can paste in code of any type (theres a drop down window that let’s you pick.)

If you a fan of textmate, you will love Pastie. Pastie color codes any code that you paste in, making it ultra-readable. As well, Pastie generates a URL to link to and TXT file to download with.

Pastie is a simple but awesome app, and I’d recommend it to any developer or front end designer.

*oooh* *ahhh*

Yes, it’s a shiny new design. Mainly inspired by a PSDTUTS Tutorial.

There’s still a few kinks to work out, mainly in the archives, but I think this one will stick around for awhile.

Puh-lease leave me a comment on what you think!

Lightroom 2 Beta is Out

April 5, 2008 – 10:39 am

This past week Adobe introduced the Lightroom 2 Beta (avaliable for download here).

Lightroom is an awesome photo organizer and editor. It’s a little more basic than photoshop: Lightroom caters to photographers who want to edit the lighting and color of their photographs to an extreme level.

The most major addition to Lightroom 2 is the ability to do retouches with Brightness, Clarity, Exposure and Saturation.  I’m likin’ it so far.

What do you use to edit your photos?
