Flighty remains undefeated as the best (iOS only?) app for tracking flights. It’s one of those rare apps that makes me want to do the thing it’s designed for more.

I love Savvycal for calendar booking, but I’m checking out Flexibits Fantastical and I’m not sure why I wouldn’t just use that for less? Anyone tried Fantastical’s scheduling feature?

I wonder how much editing was done to episode 2 of #Survivor after episode 1 was so widely panned as a terrible intro to the season? Or is ep 2 locked and loaded and they don’t touch it based on response to ep1?

What do I do? Where do I post? How do I do social media anymore?

  1. Stop freaking out.
  2. Sign up for a Micro.blog account.
  3. Syndicate from there out to whatever is the latest thing.
  4. Relax and / or profit.

I realize it probably couldn’t replace the stock bookshelf functionality on Micro.blog, but I’m loving how Hardcover is to reading as Letterboxd is to movies.

Posting on Micro.blog about editing a podcast interviewing the creator of Micro.blog has to win some sort of small “m” meta prize, right?

Updates coming to Patreon, including an option for a free tier. The new logo kind of looks like a weird kidney though?

A family we know needs some help accessing mental health treatment. If you’re able to help in some way, they’ve set up a GoFundMe here. Thank you. 🙏🏻

I (finally) published a new video on my YouTube showing how easy it is to record, edit, and publish a podcast episode from Descript to Transistor to podcast apps - with a transcription included for good measure.

Joining the ebook revolution (10 years late). Picked up a Kobo Libra 2. Someone give Robin Rendle an affiliate dollar.

Experiencing U2 at The Sphere for the first time the way Willie Williams intended it: on my phone on TikTok half covered by comment buttons and UI. 😆

I’m here to remind you that if you can wrap your head around using Drafts to post things to the internet with, you’ll unlock a super power. (I haven’t totally wrapped my head around it. Yet.)

“So the backup camera is just $390 and the hitch electrical replacement is gonna be $477.”

Anyone else’s blood drain from their body when on a phone call with a mechanic rattling off prices?

Nothing to see here. Just testing out posting from Drafts to Microblog.

Letterboxd, my fav movie review / list site, sold a 60% stake in their company to Tiny, a Canadian investment and holding company. I’m cautiously optimistic that this is a good thing overall. Definitely happy for the founders to get some $$ for all their work.

New #U2 song and video: Atomic City. Released as they start their residency in Vegas at The Sphere this weekend.

Does macOS Sonoma give you the ability to turn off the stupid Mail link preview thing that makes a mess of emails? If so, I’ll upgrade yesterday—audio plugins be damned.

Woof. That wasn’t a great season opener for Survivor. 😳 No spoilers, but I can’t imagine Jeff was happy that’s how it went down for episode one.

Why your podcast needs a website #203: When I’m linking to your podcast from another podcast’s show notes, I’m not putting Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Pocket Casts, Podtail, Podchaser, Libsyn, RSS, BlueBorfy, PodTats, CastsThatArePods, etc. links.

I’m putting one so listeners can decide.
