David Sparks has penned his 5th book, Markdown – A MacSparky Field Guide with Eddie Smith. What is Markdown, you ask? David helps us understand what it is, and why we need it. Making a convincing case for Markdown as a common, easy-to-use option for text entry on iPhone or iPad, David discusses its variations, and stresses its ease of use. His book, in iBooks format, contains not only instruction, but also videos for each step of the process, interviews with some of the leading proponents of Markdown, and more.
This edition of MacVoices is sponsored by Smile, the makers of the brand new PDFpen 6 and PDFpenPro 6, as PDFpen for iPad and PDFpen for iPhone.
