  1. Are there any ways to write tweets via command line in OSX ?
  2. I'm quite proud of the fact that Launchbar thinks "it" means launch iTerm rather than iTunes.
  3. 'East of Eden' is one of those books that's full of passages that make one think differently. amzn.com/k/2Q4WFCCDT0H1Z #Kindle
  4. @HelgeG your Capless fine nib will probably be *very* fine in my experience. There's a big change between a medium and fine.
  5. Instacast 2.0 is proving to be a LOT better than iTunes for managing podcasts.
  6. @HelgeG Using a script will make things easier if you are running tmux all the time. Did you make any changes to european style date & time
  7. @HelgeG Nice choice. Pilot capless nibs are wonderfully smooth.
  8. @HelgeG Not this pen I hope bit.ly/JRr3Zi
  9. @HelgeG Cheers. I had problems with Dropbox but iCloud seems to work well.
  10. @HelgeG BTW I recall you tweeted about Hazel and Day One. Do you sync via iCloud or DropBox?
  11. @HelgeG There's also the FPGeeks podcast. bit.ly/KdiNPV
  12. @cultpens I was looking at your very: ☑ Beautiful ☑ Expensive Platinum fountain pen last night. If only...
  13. Curious Isles – A Life on Orkney bit.ly/KAX6IT
  14. How come no-one told me about Day One dayoneapp.com There are choices? iCloud syncing or Dropbox. Is that like Atom vs. RSS?
  15. Despite my earlier reservations I''ve really come to terms with Adobe Lightroom after the 4.0 release.
  16. Opus 11. So-called because I was struck by the pattern on the No. 11 bus to Morningside. flic.kr/p/c3FoTm
  17. Sunny day. Kids playing with friends out in the sun and I'm listening to Miles Davis and reading East of Eden. #goodtimes
  18. One final plug that the Hueless app is now available. Load up you iPhone with B&W film! bit.ly/KacmNH #Hueless mlkshk.com/p/FYUX
  19. @bsag I believe the wait for Hueless is over [iTunes] bit.ly/LmAVEy
  20. @bsag Hueless was submitted last week I believe. Hopefully not telling any tales out of school here....
