Open with EWW

EWW No! Not ewwwwwwwww! But EWW (or eww). It's the text browser which comes in Emacs, and it's fantastic for quickly reading articles and doing even more than that. Recently, I started using it every day. Here's a quick summary of how I work: I am reading something in Safari (usually I get it from RSS). I see a wall of text and I want to send it to Emacs instead for better viewing.

Emacs tabs as desktops

I figured out a way to explain it Earlier today, I figured out how to explain my use of tabs in Emacs to Emacs users who don't use them and wonder why they're useful. It's simple: Think of tabs as different kinds of desktops. They can be full screen desktops, or split into different buffers. That's one way of looking at it. So you end up with a set of Emacs "desktops" which are even saved when you restart Emacs.

New Theme - Terminal

Yes! It's a new theme! Yes! I have a new theme. I'm still working on it. The reason was that as cool and awesome as blowfish is, it's a pain to update. It's finicky and has its own system of doing things. This is confusing to me. I'm blonde. Sue me. So I opted for something simpler which is much easier to update. I'm still figuring out how to customize it more, but for now it'll do.
