Just saw this on BetaList. Serendip really indulging in that callout blocks style of going outside the frame!

Absolutely, am going to rock the store with plenty of huge text with the touchme.me pivot and all-new screens.

Thanks @awwstn, that's interesting in that the first one violates Apple's guidelines that you have to show a device (or part of) in every screen. I like their callout approach too.

You just reminded me of a rather ironic tale. I used the graphviz diagram generator to generate actual database diagrams in my LevelDB book. Unfortunately, I revised one of the diagrams, which was…

Thanks @maguay for the quick fix to the markdown.

That's (a part of) the app workflow. I use Doxygen, which is more often associated with C++ code documentation. It lets me have markdown pages which…

Great examples, thanks @maguay
T he Kindle one is the first I've seen where there are two phone frames in a single screenshot. I just need to finish a couple of features in v1.3.0 and can submit it…

Here's the design generated by the above impossible to read text. (Something's going drastically wrong with the markdown rendering of code blocks on Capiche.)

Time to confess a guilty secret I've had for years.

I really should be someone who loves Tinderbox and uses it regularly.

I love graphs and visual layout of thinking. I sketch box-and-arrow diagrams…

Nice to see lots of fans of Carrd - nobody has pointed out that they often have sales around Black Friday and other times when you can buy Pro upgrades at a significant discount.

I used it for…

Yeah, I've actually done exactly this so old emails are available. What it doesn't do is provide the exploratory tools and pattern analysis people are typically now building into gmail add-ons.

Stretching my memory back is a bit hard but as I recall, depending on the country, there could be up to four layers.

In Australia, it was quasi-legal for there to be "distributor agreements" where…

Great article. I have a neighbour who publishes educational books so was roughly aware of the Kindle store nastier margins but most people wouldn't know it.
I date back to selling software through…

Sorry it was too many years ago to remember (left in 2013 in one of the waves of redundancies after their PE owners sold them to French company Dassault who promptly started moving jobs to India).

I'm (slowly) working on a couple of articles about the technology, was waiting until WWDC 2020 is over and can digest any changes. For anyone interested, I have a range of little exploratory samples…

Sometimes really fine-grained analytics helps and you do need to know enough details about a user to group them into a cohort.

For a few years, I worked on an incredibly complex 3D CAD product which…

I keep getting my quotes wrong because other platforms don't require a space after the greater-than.

Quote: Add the quoted text on its own line, then put a greater than symbol before the text like &gt…

Are you able to ship iMessage apps without a “real” app

Yes you can, but it's not a great idea.

That's actually the default setup in XCode when you create an iMessage Extension. The extension is…

I'm paranoid about any suggestion that Touchgram may be tracking users, so don't even use basic event logging to determine which features are being used. One of the reasons is the Australian…

I'm rather fond of Tinderbox, a Mac-only hypertext product.
You can use it as a simple mind-mapper but it goes well beyond that with treemap, hyperbolic and crosstab views.

The data is stored in a…

I'm going to be a contrarian and say I think Superhuman for Excel seems like an attempt to cash in on their success from a marketing standpoint but is poorly-fitted as a design mantra. Apart from my…

Correction, a better search is updated:day-2 -sourceurl:* which guarantees you haven't a URL attached as the source of the page - I copied the source:web.clip from someone else.

It was only when I…

I wouldn't rule Evernote out.
If you have public notebooks, people can use them without paid accounts, so for cash-strapped startups that brings the price down - just use the web version.
