    What do you do? I run iMore.

    When did you start using BBEdit? When I first started blogging in 2008, I downloaded TextWrangler at the suggestion of a friend. I liked it so much I bought BBEdit in a matter of days.

    What do you make? How does BBEdit help? I write articles about iPhones, iPads, and Macs. For anything longer than a few paragraphs, I write in BBEdit. It's clean, it's crisp, and it's fast. The company I work for is all-in on Google Docs, but when I throw a 20,000 word iOS firmware review in there, it grinds to an ugly halt. BBEdit has never once so much as flinched, no matter what I've thrown at it.

    I've done thousands of articles and millions of words over the years, and all the significant ones have been written in BBEdit.

    What's your favorite project that BBEdit has helped bring to life? iMore! I've done thousands of articles and millions of words over the years, and all the significant ones have been written in BBEdit.

    Which feature is your favorite? The performance. I'm a little embarrassed to say I probably use less than 1% of all the functionality jam-packed into BBEdit, but I've never once had a slow down and never once lost any work. And that's invaluable to me.
