Four more for Sunday:
Templates in Drafts app
I use Drafts especially to write plaintext and markdown either on my laptop, desktop or phone and then know that I can access or edit it on any of those devices. But it has a whole bunch of useful "actions" so that what starts out as an SMS could easily be turned into an e-mail and then appended to a document, or something. Anyway, as you'd expect it also has templating ability so that you can add text to such a file programmatically - I think at the time I was looking at how to take some text that I'd dictated on my phone and append it to a daily log file with a time stamp and some tags. The downside is that it's only available on Apple devices. But it works really well
Tod Robbins
I have no idea really why he's here - digipres means digital preservation, and I'm certainly interested in that, but this is an example of the kind of tab that sits open on my phone for months because I found something interesting one day but couldn't remember what it was about.
Satyagraha
This is an opera about the life of Gandhi, written by Philip Glass and directed by my friend Phelim McDermott. Everyone says it's fantastic. I'd love to see it, immerse myself in the whole thing, but so far I've managed to miss it when I knew it was on in London.
Popup newsletters as a concept
This is an interesting essay about the usefulness of "popup" newsletters - that is, lists that are available for a defined period and specific purpose, rather than an ongoing soap-opera type thing that does on and on forever (or until you unsubscribe). It feels more creative, like it's a work of art in itself. I did do this once for one of my journeys in the USA - wrote a daily email for a month recounting some of the stories. Worth revisiting.
