Emacs and Org Mode: What People are Saying by Nick Higham.

From the post:

For a couple of years I’ve been collecting tweets about Emacs and Org mode. With the Twitter app’s new ability to provide code to embed tweets I decided to create a post listing the collection. If you are not an existing user of Emacs or Org mode these tweets should give you a feel for whether you might want to explore further. If you are already a convert then many of the sentiments expressed here will be familiar. Note that the links and hashtags below are clickable. (Like all of this Blog, this post was written in Org mode.)

Of interest to non-Emacs users.

I hear but don’t understand the objections to markup (XML/SGML) so the need to create plain text is lost on me.

Emacs as an editor is different question. I am currently using Emacs to edit approximately 4800 pages of OCR output. Its regex features are essential.

But if you are going to create plain text, Emacs is the way to go.

I first saw this in a tweet by Christophe Lalanne.
