I love org-mode. I have never found an online todo-list or task manager that I like to use... but plain-text lists fit my mental model perfectly. org-mode is plain text on steroids... also the clocking abilities while doing tasks is incredible.

ox-rss.el - What a surprise! Nice..

M-x org-publish-project RET blog RET

That plus TRAMP and you've got a full blog generated from org! Now to hack up ox-rss.el and make a ox-feed.el that does atom..

Org-mode is a package for Emacs which supports tree outlines in plain text mode, plus a ton of features.

It is intended to cover the ground between what you would write in a notepad during a meeting, and a fully-fledged "reproducible science" notebook.

No need for TRAMP. https://github.com/juanre/org-jekyll

org is to outliners what emacs is to text editors.

No need for TRAMP. https://github.com/juanre/org-jekyll org is to outliners what emacs is to text editors.

confusing and overfeatured?

I'm interested in using org-mode to take notes in class. Anyone have any resources for getting started? I'm using latest OSX.

Different from each perspective! For handsome, smart, educated, awesome, people such as myself, it is a lifetime of treasures, hidden within RSI-inducing key bindings, no matter where on the keyboard one puts C and M.

For leprous, primitivist, stinky, bottom-feeding, monkey-scratchers, it may be a befuddling plethora of options and flexibility that forces the user to form their own opinions regarding the pursuit of goals.

Plus, they both give me something to clean out and start over every ten to fifteen years.
