It ain't pretty, but this little web app does a pretty solid job of taking pasted RTF (web, rich text) and spitting out valid Markdown. Nothing is perfect, but this gets as close as my own experiments have ever gotten me. Handy tool to keep bookmarked.

Mercury Parser is the API that services like Feedbin and Reeder use to give you full content articles in your feed. It's shutting down, but Postlight has open sourced the parser and the API. I've been playing with a local install and it makes a great markdownifier. (I'll probably be updating Marky with it soon so I can switch over to https...)

I needed to take a presentation Keynote and turn it into a workable outline, and these scripts worked a charm.

A free mac app that will export your Apple Notes to Markdown. Not only would this be a great way to transition from Apple Notes to a Markdown-based notes system (ahem, BitWriter is coming), but also a great way to continue using notes but maintain a portable backup. Nice.

A good, JavaScript-based HTML to Markdown converter developed for use in [Quiver](https://itunes.apple.com/app/quiver-programmers-notebook/id866773894?ls=1&mt=12&at=10l4tL&ct=blog).

A 9-step script that uses HTML tidy, Pandoc, and a few Node modules to do the best job I've seen of converting DOCX files to Markdown. It requires that you have Microsoft Word installed, but images are exported, tables preserved, and other nice details come through.
