That’s it. Revue is gone, killed off by the new “management” of Twitter.

Once a great service, it never really kept up with the accelerating pace of newsletter evolution.

RIP Revue. 🫡

Feeling slightly guilty that our internet is fine, while the internet from the same provider is down for most people across the Beach.

Frost on the roof, sun on the river.

Ah, it’s Winterwatch week. That’s a pleasant surprise.

Quite the sunset this evening.

Well, it may be sub-zero in the garden this morning, but spring is still a’coming…

Craig Hockenberry:

“It feels like the time is right for a truly universal timeline. That notion excites me like the first time I posted XML status to an endpoint.”

In other words, it’s time to build ActivityPub clients, not just Mastodon ones.

”I had to use my legs to go far away in order to discover this, but I now know it is possible to reach silence anywhere. One only need subtract.”

Every Sunday, I tell myself the early starts are worth it.

And sometimes it’s really true.

My weekend reading has arrived. 📚

It turns out that glass-sided bridges require more maintenance than you’d think.

Some fun weekend reading for you from my soon-to-be-defunct Revue newsletter.

Perfect Friday fodder for those of us of a certain age.

Twitter’s API appears to be down, breaking any third party client access to the service.

And now we wait to find out if this is intentional, or just a cock-up.

What do you think the chances of the Revue integration on people’s Twitter profiles just frictionlessly disappearing when they shut down the newsletter service next week, as opposed to breaking in new and exciting ways?
