I was seriously considering using Github to replace Editorially. Now? Not so much.

Mike Johnston on the notion that “the best camera is the camera with you”, and on writing in general: There's only your right way. And yes, that can be difficult to settle on; and yes, it might take lots of experimentation to find out what it is; and yes, you might have to work very…

Marco Arment commenting on Amazon Prime and larger issues: In the last few years, Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Twitter have all made huge attempts to move into major parts of each others’ businesses, usually at the detriment of their customers or users. This is one of Arment’s best posts in a while. His analysis…

Thomas Fitzgerald: Many of the comments I’ve received have been wondering if there’s a way to get close to the output of Iridient Developer or Photo Ninja using a combination of Lightroom and Photoshop. Surprisingly, the answer is almost. I’ve been working on this for a while now and I believe that by combining Lightroom…

My morning routine when I get to the office is pretty set, step two is swiping over to the space where a fullscreen Fluid instance of Flow (my web based task management app) is running. I hit CMD+R to get it refreshed, look at the list and get back to what ever is urgent. Today…

I had one of these, and one of the biggest tech regrets I have is selling it off. It was a fantastic design, and the mechanical privacy shutter was light years ahead of its time.

John Carey: This was just before the hysteria of smart phones took over our lives. If I remember correctly, I was carrying the recently released first generation of iPhone with me which went mostly untouched during the trip. While it was a cool device, my world didn’t revolve around it, I didn’t feel the need…

File this in the department of things I didn’t know. Mike Johnston, in talking about the Fuji 56 f/1.2 lens, talks a bit about why a portrait photographer doesn’t necessary want the sharpest lens: The texture of makeup and temporary pimples just aren’t needed for recognition purposes, and the brain tends to naturally “throw away”…
