This sticky notes, markers, and tape design trend seems like a throwback to iWeb and I’m not loving it.
Do you hesitate to share articles that are not timely?
I find myself reading older articles, but I don’t share them often. This is not because the information or wisdom isn’t up to date, but I feel a tinge of hesitation sharing on the web when something is not timely.
I showed my 4th graders a slideshow of the Underwater Photographer of the Year Winners and they absolutely lost their minds, standing up and applauding, when a certain swimming primate appeared on the screen.

If you don’t know anything about Joel, this perfect video both will and won’t help you know anymore.

No one told me about Everlog for journalling. I have been using Notes for my daily log, but that is usually an end of the day summary. I love the ability to add multiple entries throughout the day. I can’t find anything wrong with this yet.
I got some new cassettes in the mail today from 100% Electronica.
I haven’t been spending enough time listening on the Nakamichi CR-2A lately with my over-ear headphones, which sound excellent.
I watched an hour and 50-minute retrospective of Boy Meets World, and I regret nothing.
