  • Maybe I’m hopelessly naive, or too generous towards developers but the Release notes section of the Flickr blog looks pretty good to me, specifically in light of where the platform had been before it was bought by SmugMug.

    Some of the criticism in this thread is quite harsh.

  • Anyways, dozens, and all with their unique handwriting. And today, for whatever reason, that was all I was focusing on, each unique handwriting. In my mind, I was like, “what typeface would that one be called?”

    — Gaby, What’s your typeface?

    A great question to ask.

  • You don’t need to “bring back blogging”.

    You don’t need to harp on about “the blogosphere” or other nonsensical terms.

    I appreciate a lot of very online people are either marketers, marketing-adjacent, or generally exposed to marketing culture.

    However, we don’t need that.

  • It is Christmas my dudes

  • Hogan took his first trip with us on a bus today. It was a short journey but everything went well, and he got a walk around the large supermarket for the first time. We then made another couple of stops. Not that long ago this would have been an unusually active day outside.

  • I heard my second LP song this year. I have yet to hear more but I’m confident that I’ll be listening to her music for the rest of my life.

  • Indiekit is firmly of the opinion that everyone should be able to enjoy the full benefits of independent web publishing.

  • It’s interesting to see how angry some people get when others say “I don’t want a smartphone and don’t like what they’re doing to us.”

    → 5:41 PM, Dec 17
  • Journalling has immediately become a relief valve. I need to try longer form writing and maybe even longer term planning (yearly planners, etc).

    → 12:35 AM, Dec 16
  • Anything before January of 2020 feels like it’s literally from another world.

    → 5:34 PM, Dec 15
  • For the past four days I have marked the beginning and end of my day by writing in my journal. This is the first time I have ever done so.

    Five days ago Patrick Rhone wrote about Journal Day, on The Cramped. I did not partake on that day, however I know I will next year. 📔

  • Work for @TIL 2.0 continues and I am looking forward to talking about it closer to the release date. This includes details about my delayed progress (hint: it’s been a summer).

    Meanwhile, I have updated the Funding page with links, information, and improved language.

  • It’s good to see Matter announce their pricing plans. A subscription makes sense.

    I’ve yet to decide whether I’ll pay (when I can afford to do so) but even with barely any use I have been impressed by the mere existence of a Firefox extension. That bodes well.

    → 7:40 PM, Dec 11
