Markdown and Evernote. It is (sort off) finally there.
Found this tool the other day that is making it possible to write simple Markdown documents (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) that will convert into nice looking formatted Evernote notes.
It seems all very new, but the basics are working great. I can write my stuff, it autocompiles (it is split-window) so I can see what I do and the results are autosynced to Evernote.
Only problems I've had so-far is that when editing later in Evernote, the syncing back towards Marxico is inconsistent. Also, currently, the tools is using plain-old-http and no https, so I'd not use it for anything too sensitive (or on an open network).

How some brains are able to counteract some of the hallmark effects of Alzheimer
Pretty exciting stuff to see that these people seem to cope: "Scientists say this suggests their brains have an ability to adapt to and compensate for any early damage caused by the protein."

Given all leaks and breaches happening all-the-time at almost any given platform I decided to move my passwords over to generated ones by #lastpass
So-far I'm a pretty happy puppy about it all, the integration with different browsers works like a charm and also (after becoming a premium member) their mobile apps seem to-do the job well.
