Oh boy! Mobile apps are coming to obsidian. I’d bet you’d have to use (and pay) obsidian sync but as long as the files are still plain text, this is an easy “shut up and take my subscription.”
I always intend to take a before and after haircut photo… today I actual took one!
After seven years of learning Polish, I still sometimes use the wrong gender adjective endings.
My two-year-old daughter just corrected me.
So how’s your Friday going.
I’m so done with Unsplash images.
I really hate seeing the same images over and over again as well as these prestine pictures of minimalist desktops. I vow to only use photos I take for my blog from now on.
Thank you for listening to my TED talk.
Yesterday’s walk with my daughter.
A return to time blocking
I recorded some test footage with my new light today. It is a massive improvement over my previous lighting. Just trying to work out some practical issues for my next sketchnote video.
The test run of SPS has been fantastic! Basecamp was the perfect choice, in fact, I couldn’t have picked a better platform and I didn’t! Time for the next step.
Billionaire most likely to own a volcano base…Jeff Besos or Elon Musk?
So tired from a day at work. Hope you are all doing well my micro friends.
Principles I say I live by: only as complicated as needed.
Principles I actually live by: oh look at this new shiny! I will love it and use it for ever and it shall be mine. (A few weeks pass) urgh, new shiny isn’t shiny anymore and is so complicated…but new new shiny on the other hand…
Just found a second hand “duckie” lens (70-200mm. Perfect for pictures of the ducks) and it made me wonder. What are some other non-proper but very discriptive names for camera lenses? Other suggestion - street photography lens - 35mm - the Bruce Guilden lens - 28mm - the Bresson - 50mm
I bought a couple of years of web hosting which runs out in June… I have no idea what I’ll do when it runs out. I’m sure the prices have gone up so maybe I should migrate…maybe move away from WordPress…maybe let go of those sites (Hey, remember iPad Guild?)
Stocked up on refills for my spoke pen. Been missing this baby.
I’ve created a whole load of marketing guides and resources for our team at work, I’ve shared some with friends and now I’m wondering if maybe I should adapt these and publish them for anyone (specifics and confidential details removed of course). A lot of it is fair obvious stuff for marketers, but maybe someone would find it useful/enjoy it.
I had a go at copying one of Ian Barnards hand lettering designs. Mine wasn’t as good but still great fun to try and great to learn.
One of the biggest mistakes we make is overvaluing the impact a tool will make and undervalue the impact of focus, intention and time.
🔗 Chris J Wilson Thanks past Chris.
Reloaded my film camera today.
A very scientific survey of the least to most annoying versions of the Baby shark song.
1) super simple songs.
2) super simple songs (Halloween version)
3) bounce patrol
4) pinkfong.
As it happens, this is also the reverse order of my daughter’s favourite versions.
Nikon z50 review
Wow! Craft is gorgeous!
Asked the dumb question at work (“Sorry, but what is X” “Thanks, but can I just check, is that X or Y?”) and it turned out the person wasn’t sure! Always good to ask dumb questions!
Graceful accountability
Tłusty czwartek!!!!
🔗The Management Myth
… I really don’t need hey email, do I. I tried the 14 day trial and it seemed…fine. But using Basecamp for SPS with @cm really impressed me…and there’s something in basecamp called Hey and it’s nice…I wonder how much a years subscription is in Zloty…
Ordered a new softbox with Bowens mount…they shipped the wrong model. Now I have to return it.
Thank you Internet for this glorious moment. “I’m here live, I’m not a cat” says lawyer in zoom filter mishap.
We (@cm and I) had our official secret side project kick off call last night. Hopefully we can share more in a couple of weeks.

Two responses to problems
When I get some deep work in vs when I don’t.
That’s not your really challenge.
Well! I finally managed to push send on a new edition of the Learn Create Share newsletter and state that I’m moving email services (again!). There may even be some mistakes but I’ve procrastinated on sending this for too long already. It was ready last month!
There's a whole world out there
Unlock with Apple Watch? Shut up and take my beta.
Nobody…
Me: I should redesign my microblog site.
Closing the idea - action gap
I’m curious. Which would you prefer, a slack community or a discord community (or something else?) and Why?
Feb photoblogging day 3: comfy
My comfy work desk
Feb photoblogging day 2: Morning coffee
I’m very critical of my work windows computer…but a built in clipboard manager is magic. There are times when I accidentally “copy” something, but it’s okay, I still have it.
Photoblogging day 1: close up
I’m wondering if I can turn N.T. Wright’s study into my zoom background…To be honest, I’d just like a study like this!
Not the best start to the morning. My train was cancelled…but no one told us anything for 30 mins. Oh well, working remote instead of the task I need to do in the office.
I have started a list of custom key caps to buy.
Now I’m getting emails with more suggestions.
This is getting serious /dangerous / potentially expensive.
It’s ALIVE!!!
Create your first sketchnote workshop
Just 20 mins to create your first sketchnote.
Had some issues with hard drive space and final cut but now my new intro to sketchnote course/video is exporting!
