There were no posts from @TIL on Friday. Been finishing up the updates I mentioned previously in the week.

And they’re ready πŸ‘€

But first! Some regular posts…


So that’s the regular posts for @TIL done for the day. Second day back, I think I’m back on track.

But I do have… something else. πŸ‘€


Yes, @TIL is back.

Yes, to full activity.

Yes, there is more to come tonight. πŸ‘€


Because I have an actual computer I’ve found it easier to work on different parts of @TIL. I now have parts of the project I work on to feel better about the parts that are frustrating in a given moment.

This is one of those things I realise that further motivates me to work.


Have yet to spend time learning Hugo; evenso I enjoy working on the theme for @TIL with some HTML and CSS. I love that I can make design choices knowing that in the future I’ll be able to implement at the template level, with basic customisation then left for temporary changes.


Between the coffee and catching up on Core Intuition it looks like Finish Friday is a reality for me with @TIL today. πŸ’ͺ


First day of the return of @TIL πŸŽ‰

Now in the new house, with a computer that is so very good, and a much better environment overall… this is a much more substantial return, thankfully, finally.

Earlier today I announced the return of Today I Learned. This Monday @TIL will be back, including the immediate return of regular post types, updates, and… new things. 😎

A preview issue of ICYMI is currently available if you subscribe to Post Haste. This will soon disappear!


Brand new part of @TIL is prepared and ready to go 😎


I’ve managed to fit in little bits of work for @TIL here and there during the move. I probably won’t get anything else done for a few days but there is one thing I can share, even though it is a WIP:

The donations for TIL, via Buy Me A Coffee now includes membership options.


Timezone bump for @TIL:

I’ve put Today I Learned on a break. All of my time and energy is being used on moving home.

I have not set a date for bringing TIL back but I will still be around on Micro.blog and spending some of my free time working on future updates for the project.


TIL On a Break

As of today @TIL is on a break, and will return as soon as possible.

The move is all-consuming at this point and I am confident that recent updates have put the project in good enough condition to survive.

I’ll still be about. πŸ™‚

Thanks for reading!


Timezone-shifted prompt:

After a busy week on @TIL, the recently named newsletter Post Haste will help you get caught up!

The next issue of ICYMI will be released on Monday. πŸ‘€


Well that was a pretty good week for @TIL.

If you missed it or like getting letters, there is a newsletter for that: Post Haste

I’m writing the next issue of the weekly recap, ICYMI, and it will be out on Monday. πŸ‘€


Say hello to the redesigned @TIL. 😎

Welcome to TIL

Hi πŸ‘‹

Today I Learned is the Micro.blog companion and guide, and I am the author.

With @TIL you can find your way around Micro.blog, whether you’re new to the platform or have been here for a while already. You can get hold of different resources; including tips, guides, links, updates, and the weekly edition of the newsletter.

Here are some links to get you started:

I’ll continue to share information and links about TIL but everything you need will always be published either on the site or through one of the external channels.

Welcome to Micro.blog. I hope you find the community and the platform as warm and authentic as I have. ☺️

See you on the timeline!


Looking forward to releasing some @TIL updates tomorrow. I nearly pushed the button on a few things early but remembered how much I enjoy adding a bit more polish and publishing with a more intentional approach.

Related: I love how much control you can have on the web.


Testing out a new post type for @TIL with this post for Micro Camp.

What do you think; link-blogging on Today I Learned?


Better understanding of Micro.blog templates and Hugo means that @TIL has had its first design-based updates that I was able to batch together. πŸ‘€
