Great apps for 2012: Mac This will be a 3-part series celebrating some of my favorite apps in 2012: Mac apps, Mac & iOS crossover apps and iOS apps. These are apps that I use regularly. Not all of them are new, and it’s not even close to a comprehensive list; just a few I thought worth mentioning. Great Mac apps for 2012 Sublime Text 2 Sublime has become my editor of choice. Curio 8 This year’s update to Curio was pretty amazing. Simplify Simplify is my favorite music controller. Clarify If you write documentation for screen-based procedures, Clarify is an amazing tool for quickly gathering screenshots, adding instructions and outputting PDF, HTML or even blog-based instructions. Bartender By far one of my favorite utilities of the year. PopClip PopClip brings iOS style selection popups to the Mac. Trickster Trickster offers a menu bar popup that shows you your most recent files and gives you easy access to them. FoldingText FoldingText is the “sequel” to TaskPaper.

I wanted to make sure that they used "credible" references so I asked them to use CiteULike, which strongly encourages them to use journal references by having specific fields to fill in like Journal Name, Year, Volume, Page, Authors, etc. Certainly there is a tremendous improvement in the references used by students over the last term. This is a step in the right direction. In chemistry, that means that every statement expressed as a fact has a reference. With these criteria, I think that (if done with care) blog posts of scientific research are potentially easier to authenticate than a paper in a printed journal because every statement can be supported by a hyperlink that can be immediately verified. I am not saying that peer review is of no value.
