And so ends a blog I’ve been reading since 2003 (ish). Sad news.


Doc Searls on supply chains:

Really positive feedback from TL;DR issue 1 on my blog. That’s a nice thing to start a Friday with.

Maybe this year’s the year? 🤷

What stocking fillers would be appropriate for journalists, anyway?


Well, that was a pretty clear admission that Apple had spend five years going the wrong way with their laptops, wasn’t it?

Today, I had managed the sort of productivity that if I managed every day, my life would be a lot happier and calmer.

I actually think I can spot two reasons why that happened, so… 🤞🏻


Shell game.
