Github's Atom Editor tried out
I've tried out Github's Atom Editor shortly and I must say, they've come up with a pretty cool thing.
If you want to try it out, drop a comment, got 3 invites. At the moment only for Mac OS.Here a couple of screenshots, thanks to Mikkel for providing hardware so I could try it out ;)

The welcome screen shows some general info and a small disclaimer.

MarkDown Preview ships with atom!

The configuration is saved in a file so you easily can synchronize it to other machines
![atom-io-keybindings](/assets/2014/atom-io-keybindings.png)
The keybindings can be altered quite extensively

There's a vim mode plugin already
![atom-io-settings](/assets/2014/atom-io-settings.png)
The settings tab looks a little rough, but it's functional

Themes can be written in LESS, which is awesome.
