Oh, you guys--I was a vi user for years before finally trying out Emacs three years ago.

I tell you Emacs is like playing a violin. Especially with Orgmode, Emac's "killer app."

Orgmode does look cool. It reminds me of people typing documents and notes and tasks as markdown. I guess emacs had it all figured out decades earlier.

Oh, boy! Not one to be shy, here's a quick primer on Orgmode's features and capabilities.

Spoiler: just blast out text and let Org mode organize your schedule and output good-looking documents featuring (if you like) embedded code!
