Where I’ve been
Wednesday, May 31, 2023
I’ve seen a few posts from people sharing where they’ve been and thought it was interesting. So I’m sharing the countries I’ve been too as well: Denmark 🇩🇰 France 🇫🇷 Switzerland 🇨🇭 Israel 🇮🇱 Italy 🇮🇹 I’ve also stepped foot in Belgium and Luxembourg but they were both on the way to Switzerland so I don’t count them. When I was growing up we had most of our family holidays in the UK and I think I’ve visited nearly all the counties in England, most of Wales, and a couple in Scotland.
Editing memories
Sunday, May 14, 2023
I’ve been looking at some of the things Google announced this week. Whilst some of the things are quite interesting – like the Pixel Tablet and stand – others are just plain puzzling. I understand that Google was is trying to flex and show off their AI abilities, the new Magic Editor that they announced doesn’t sit well with me. I take photos to preserve memories. I can look back through my photo library and memories are triggered by the visuals, even the ones that are less than perfect.
I love my Sonos, but starting to want some kind of physical remote to control them. Any recommendations?

Trying to utilise Hookmark in my workflow more but finding I spend a lot of time making sure things are linked… seems to create more admin work than I would like.
A thought provoking blog post about the role of software, thinking, and the affect they are having on our abilities.

So engrossed in my book I dropped coffee on the page 📚
One of the best uses for the HomePod mini on my desk… making hands free phone calls especially when I know I will be on hold.
I’ve always tried to have a style guide page somewhere on my own websites, but this one takes it to another level. Excellent stuff.

Such a shame what happened to the brand design of the fashion world.
Fascinating read about the redesign of Wikipedia and the role that prototypes played in it.
The irony of Chat GTP asking me to verify I’m a human 😂
