One thing I really like on Medium is the composing experience. It's simple and beautiful. Sometimes I forget what a game changer that can be. But the Medium experience has been strong enough that I do almost all my writing there (even before you could have an audience).

I'd love to check this out. Are details available? Screen shots?

I suppose you can see it at https://medium.com/

Well that's where I originally looked. The commenter mentioned the composing experience, but I didn't find any details. If you coud point me to a UI demo or info, I'd appreciate it. I must be missing something. Thanks.

If you aren't signed in (or in browser private mode), and visit https://medium.com, you should see this http://cl.ly/image/3z293w0b2V0j. I don't have write access to the service either, but my guess is that's how it looks like? You can actually type, as well as replace the photo in that page. But you can't save.

Thanks. Now see it. I must have been expecting something different. Now it seems pretty obvious to me.

ditto! i've even started to compose emails in it. rivals IA Writer.
