I wrote a short blog post [1] on what I found while trying out Github's new zen writing tool. Just using it was enlightening for me if you havn't tried it yet give it a go, or have a look at what I thought of it, then you'll want to give it a go?
I realised that I wanted to be able to link to this.
Not the main github page of my code repository (although I will want to do that too
of course) but to this markdown rendered zen mode view of what I want to show them.
be that code or prose.
Over all I think it's great and have tried to explain my thoughts more fully in the link provided.

- imjared 14y agothanks for the mention, and yes, it's definitely quite cynical :) That said, I'm still trying to figure out what's so enjoyable about it. What about it is "enlightening" or makes you go "warm and fuzzy inside?" Basically, what differentiates this from using a full screen window in your text editor? Is it the contrast of colors? Is it because it's on the web? I wonder if I'm not using github to its full potential since I don't get it. Any insight to process or use cases other than how it makes you feel (I agree, it looks pretty, I guess) would be really appreciated!
