Markdown + Sublime Text 2. OSX only for now....

A bunch of packages for Sublime Text

This is a really neat project that some guy hacked together. Push a button and it books a meeting room for the next 1/2 hour.

This could be a super useful thing if I get deeper into electronics--a big collection of capacitors and resistors in handy book form.
