URL hygiene. this is great and potentially useful. And a lot of it commonsensical, of course.

arrogant, disingenuous article but that’s to be expected. The comments are what make this worth reading. no more political propaganda without readers’ response attached to it!

“if it worked, people are creating in ways they weren’t before. That’s the gratification available to creativity. These days it’s rarely rewarded with money. Okay, that’s the way it goes, and in some sense is the way it’s always been.” Amen

this is awfully close to the approach we have been talking about at IIW. a marvellous coincidence or just real demand for such things is becoming more widespread.
-
cool idea, again more demand for genuinely user centric apps. to me portability is equally important as ‘aggregation’ in one interface.
-
more interesting stuff to watch. Also: “There was no chicken and egg at first, we needed both a chicken and an egg (and a frying pan too).”

integration of apps is not the answer, the user is the point of integration

no idea if it’s any good but looks interesting. for those who still need to convince their troglodyte bosses that times are a-changing

Dana street roasting company or coffee golem den
This is the story behind the cafe in Mountain View, CA I am about to walk and have decent coffee (please read the whole thing):
Hours curled up into days and days into months and Chaput found himself growing weary of his new title. The cosmos were a dry, corporate workplace. The coffee was crappy and his coworkers would never shut up about the stupid little things their babies did. He longed for the adventure of yore. Chaput called upon his old friend, the golem, for help. The golem agreed, but only on one condition: Chaput could never abandon him again. After a period of contract negotiation and hardcore brainstorming, the two agreed the best future for them both was to conquer the dark, trembling arts of the Qahwat al-Bunn (wine of the bean, or coffee, for our non-Arabic base).
And yes, you heard me right. Walk!
Thanks to Ben for introducing me to it.
