A Better Microblogging Site – Thoughts, Images, and Bookmarks
I have always wanted a place to collect things, whether they were random thoughts that popped into my head, or interesting websites and articles that I found online. I’ve also wanted a place to post things publicly, that didn’t quite fit with my blog — maybe they were just little incomplete thoughts, or outside one […]
Read MoreSeeing All of My Todo Lists in One View
I usually have numerous projects going on, for both myself and my clients. Usually in Vimsio I create a folder for each client, and drop in a todo list, which works well, but each list is somewhat siloed from the various other lists. I recently added the ability to tag posts, so a todo list […]

Three Days in November
Three-and-a-half days of sleeping in our car, hiking and exploring by day, and relaxing or working on personal projects at night…

We have even managed a few backpacking trips in the Sierras with our little one. However, with the exception of some of the […]
Read MoreIgnore Things
The ability to not become stressed out probably depends on your ability to ignore things. I had a nice morning coding some designs that I’ve been working on for the past few weeks. I was able to focus on the task, methodically working through the project, and I made quite a bit of progress. Meanwhile, […]
Read MoreJoin Two Nodes That Sit On Top of Eachother in Inkscape
Joining two line segments in inkscape is generally pretty easy — at least if the two nodes to join are situated closely together so you can easily click on both and use the “join selected nodes” tool. But most of the time I want the nodes to sit right on top of eachother. How do […]
Read MoreDesigners Should Just Learn to Code
There is an ever-increasing number of web prototyping tools out there. From Adobe XD, to Invision, to Figma. And the number of apps within this niche seems to grow daily. Every posting for a potential project seems to list a need for knowing one, or a couple of these, so I, along with thousands of […]
