The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

Google's webstore has a design which is incredibly reminiscent of iTunes store. Regular challenges yield similar design solutions I guess.

The new PDF rendering in #chrome looks super fast. Brought to your browser via the seamless auto update with security fixes. Nice.

Settling in for the slightly mysterious Chrome event at Google. Live streaming from Mountain View. Perhaps Crome OS and app store news.
