The Tools That Make This Weblog Possible


I’ve arrived at a stable equilibrium as far as the tools that I use to prepare weblog entries and to work with the radio station. I want to mention them explicitly (for the search engines and my own historical purposes.)

  • Site editing/maintenance
  • Radio station content preparation
    • Emusic — affordable supply of new independent label content
    • Lame — encoding CDs to MP3
    • Studio365 — uploading music for FFG static stream
    • Studio365Live — live broadcast tool for Dulcet
    • iTunes — playlist planning, MP3 tagging and file management
    • id3x — MP3 tagging and file management

  • Nice you're using Unicode Checker
  • Everybody's mentioning Hydra in some way. Will have to look at it
  • I'm sure you could do all of that with emacs only ;)

  • So simple, so elegant, so useful.
  • see #1
  • I was a BBEdit Lite user, but TextWrangler is just too expensive for me too justify. Hydra hits the sweet spot — it's free (yay!), it's Cocoa, so services work (and, as you can see from my list of tools, I'm a big fan of Services), and I haven't even scratched the surface of the collaboration features yet.
  • vi, heathen! ;)
