Date: February 27, 2018 Tags: links I read Om Malik’s blog, and I really liked this post, partially because small, personal writing is exactly what I’m trying to do here. I like his “micropub” idea a lot. But how did I find Malik in the first place? Maybe all likelihood, I found him through another blog…

I read Om Malik’s blog, and I really liked this post, partially because small, personal writing is exactly what I’m trying to do here. I like his “micropub” idea a lot. But how did I find Malik in the first place? Maybe all likelihood, I found him through another blog linking to him. Individual, interesting people…

I’ve never been the best reader. I never been the best writer, either. But I like doing both a great deal. They are both, unfortunately, easy habits to break. And I guess they’re important, but to me there just kind of what I do or at least what I’ve always done. I don’t even know…

The first season of You Chose Poorly has wrapped up, and I wanted to write a little bit about it. You Chose Poorly is a 14-episode podcast about tech products and self reflection. It’s selfish and self-serving, but it asks questions everyone should ask from time to time: am I doing right by the people…

Mikey and Sawyer cap off the first season of You Chose Poorly by talking about what comes first (hint: it’s people, not products), the impossibility of buying the right camera, and when you have to turn off the “product hunt” and just deal with what you’ve got. Show notes:

Date: Aug 10th, 2016 This week, Mikey and Sawyer discuss Pokemon Go, the wisdom of avoiding never-ending video games, and how good the game might be for society. Also, a little bit of iOS 10 Beta chat at the beginning. Show notes:

In this day and age, what’s the best way to read a book? Sawyer and Mikey try to figure out why “use an ebook reader” isn’t automatically the answer. They also talk about the ebook readers they’ve owned, and if any of them were wrong. In this day and age, what’s the best way to…

Sawyer tells a story about recommending a service that recently shut down, and this brings Mikey to the topic at hand: photos. What do you do with them? How do you trust they’ll still be there if you want to see them later? How much money do you have to throw at this problem? And…

Is trying to get everyone on board with new workflows always a mistake? Do you just drive yourself nuts knowing the future is right there, just out of reach, while everyone else around you is fine just faxing stuff? Sawyer and Mikey begin to unpack an issue that plagues early adopters and automation enthusiasts. Show…

Mikey and Sawyer talk WWDC 2016, and in the process wrestle with spending personal time watching corporate keynotes. Is it a waste of time for a regular consumer? What is it about nerdy drama that keeps us coming back? And is it about the products, the people, or the (once again) weird feeling of unearned…
