I had forgotten how nice of an app Ulysses is. I haven’t used it since I moved my blogs to Blot, which was close to 3 years ago. I think I like the way Ulysses handles punishing to Micro.blog better than iA Writer. Ulysses has options for saving as draft, publishing, or publishing on a date & time, as well as categories all from the publish screen. It also shows a small preview of what the post will look like.

Test post from Ulysses Beta

I’m waiting to see if I get on the Ulysses beta and try publishing to Micro.blog.

I have decided to go all in with Micro.blog for blogging. I had been using my Blot blog for longer posts and Micro.blog for shorter posts. Short posts, long posts, travel photos, and everything in between is going to posted here now.

Here is what the post looks like on Micro.blog’s edit screen. I added Houston, Texas in the alt field. It was originally blank. @odd @manton

I started messing with Craft and I’m really liking it so far.

Here is what I changed in the shortcut if you want to adjust yours @pratik
