I’ve been experimenting with time tracking. I’ve been doing it as an experiment at first, but now it’s part of my workflow. I’m using Toggl and Timery. Ask me anything.
I’m starting a new trend: open writing.
If you’ve been paying attention in recent months, did you know that you can have a peek at my upcoming blog posts that I’m working on? Thanks to Craft, You can peak at a selection of drafts, ideas, reference lists, etc. I give a name to this: open writing. Think of this as being this observer looking at a painter while he or she is painting a new artwork.👨🏻💻
What would be super cool is if someone interacted with this by posting comments… which is something Craft makes possible.
I’ll never consider moving my newsletter from Subtack to go to Facebook. Over my dead body. Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg: Bulletin Is “Directly for Journalists and Individual Writers” – The Hollywood Reporter
Problem of the day: my read later list is spread among Safari Reading List, Apple’s Reminders, Pocket, Craft and since iPadOS 15, QuickNotes😳. What is the problem with me? 🤦🏻♂️
I have to do something about this, once and for all.
Finally on vacation for two weeks. Been a long time. For the second summer in a row, we rented a chalet which happens to be real nice. But there is one thing: internet access is flaky at best. Good time to disconnect and spend more time writing I guess. 😌
Micro.blog > Twitter Blue.
I like how Micro.blog stacks up against Twitter’s subscription. $5: Micro.blog hosting, photos, use your own domain name, categories, bookmarks, themes, CSS, plug-ins, bookshelves, standalone pages, native apps, open APIs. $3: undo tweet, thread viewer, free Twitter features.
Indeed.
Better reading experience of Twitter Threads, via Twitter Blue, will encourage people to write more threads on Twitter instead of publishing a blog post. I’m not sure that I like the trend here.
Current status: publishing.
Current status: writing. Who knew. 👀
About those digital attention seekers ... GTFO (#socialnetworks)
I hate it when people subscribe to my stuff, to my blog, my newsletters, or whatever, just to grab my attention and wish that I’ll follow them back. That is not the way I operate or think. I’m looking for real content, enlightenment, creativity, singularity. I rarely follow back someone unless they meet what I’m looking for online. Just saying.
