I've been using this for a while (at least a year or so) and it's by far my favorite markdown editor. I love the side by side panes (code + preview) and the ease of use. It stays out of my way while I write. I write Markdown for my blog and depending on what I'm doing, I like to write while I'm doing it, (to verify each step of a tutorial) which means I had to find a MD editor for 3 platforms (Windows, OSX, Linux). This one is by far the easiest, most reliable offering out of the three. The side by side preview is great. I've used Uberwriter too, which would be great for a different kind of writing. Since I'm usually going through some steps of a tutorial I use a lot of images and code markup and it doesn't really handle this well. If I were writing a novel or article however Uberwriter works pretty great for that.
