An In-Depth Look At Yojimbo: Hacks, Applescripts and Sync Services
Writing this article has been difficult. The fact is, I couldn’t stand Yojimbo until a few weeks ago. And I swear, I wanted to test it, buy it, become a Yojimbo die hard fan…but I couldn’t find a real use for it. Two downloads, two “move file file to trash”.
Now, this article is focused on the total awesomeness of Yojimbo.
What? Yeah, I changed my mind.

The Mac Sale 2 Coming On October 31st
Seems like the Mac community can’t get enough of Mac bundles.
The Mac Sale, in collaboration with MacZot! is relaunching on October 31st and it will be called “The Mac Sale 2”. I can’t say much about the apps that will be included in the bundle but - trust me - it’s way better than The Mac Sale 1, in my opinion.
In the meantime, you can apply for registration here and get a Mail Stationery as a free gift. Also, when the bundle will launch, be sure to use our affiliate link and our promo code (MACSTORIES) to get a 5% off.

There’s no doubt that Mac OS is the favourite platform for creative people and professionals: it’s stable, features rich and there are tons of applications for every need.
But this is not a secret.
Today, I’m very excited to announce a new post series on MacStories, “Recorded On A Mac”. This new series will focus on artists / bands that used Mac OS to record / edit their songs, with thoughts about the whole process and their favourite tools and apps.
The first band which agreed to collaborate with MacStories are Hydrovibe, an alternative rock band from Los Angeles, United States. They’re also offering a free download of their new album “Nothing Left To Lose” to 10 lucky readers.
Interview and giveaway rules after the jump!

JustNotes: Notes + Simplenote Client for Mac
You’ve probably already heard of Simplenote: it’s a note taking application for iPhone which syncs with its online server and each note you take on the mobile device will then be available through the web interface.
Simple and straighforward.
John Gruber also showed his love for Simplenote back in July.
So, what if we could have a desktop client for Mac? Here comes JustNotes, a beta app I’ve discovered the last week.
