Elegant and simple. Very well done. But what's the value of the Wiki Search, though? It ends up opening up a new tab when you click on an article anyway. I thought it would allow you to reference it quickly or something. Thanks.

@joshuapinter Thanks :) Regarding your query, why wiki search? It was mainly implemented because I have seen many students jumping to wiki while making notes, writing essays etc. Thus wanted to make wiki search seamlessly integrated into the editor itself. Though when a search result is clicked it redirects you to wiki page if you want to read the complete article, but search also shows the brief description there itself to get acquainted with the topic. Let me know what you feel about it and if there is something that you would like to suggest? :)

@vijay_rohan I see where you're going with it and I think that's great but I don't think you went far enough in this iteration to add value to the process. If I'm using WikiPedia **that** much than I'd just pin a tab for it or have it on the second screen or something. If you made it super easy to search for the topic and reference the article in your text with a link or a footnote that would add value and justify the integration. Might even allow simple quoting from the article or something. I like the direction, though.

@joshuapinter I totally agree with your view point. What I will try to do is to create a wiki search icon in the tooltip itself when you select a particular word. Also, I will also explore other iterations of the same.

Hi Rohan, great tool. My compliments. Is this going to become a paid tool? What kind of business model do you have in mind?

A good start for a great writing tool. I'd like to see more color and font alternatives. The only problem is fullscreen mod does not work on Firefox?

The Design of Influence: How to Craft Products that Move People

This is great. Nice touch on using local storage for this, though, it makes me a little concerned about using this for long-term writing projects, e.g. sometimes it can take me weeks and months to write an article). I'm also seeing a buggy problem with there being varying line-height differences between lines. Nothing major, but the inconsistency can be a little jarring for my slightly OCD brain :p Thanks for making this available all the same!

@alirtariq Hey! Thanks a lot for your feedback :) Yeah, you are right it might sometimes take a lot of time in writing for long term project, therefore I have tried to keep it stored in local storage for quite a lot of time so that it does not get erased even after few weeks. And yes, I will make the line height consistent :) Let me know if there is something else you want to add!

I like it—simple and straightforward! It would be nice if it retains the formatting once you pass it on to the email client. Via Sparrow at least, all I got is one blob of text. Anyway, great work!

@visavis_kid I am glad you liked it :) There seems to be some bug that does not retain the formatting in the email client. I am working on it. Will get it fixed soon!

I liked it so much that I used it almost all day. However, I wish there was a way to upload or link to images. That process seems a bit gone right now. That would make me use it all the time instead of old and clunky Microsoft Word. Great product - just offering some ideas on how to make it better!!

@shardulg23 Hi Shardul. I am highly obliged that you liked it. Give me a few days time, I will push the image upload feature if possible as early as possible. I will update you as soon as I do it. Thanks again :)
