Justin Jackson on Supporting the Work
by
While the whole article isn’t about supporting the work of other creatives you like, that’s the part that stuck out to me in this excellent post by Justin Jackson. “Supporting the work” is what Paul Jarvis wants to enable on Pico; a platform where readers pay writers monthly. “Supporting the work” is why I buy
If you’ve ever wanted to do an SEO Audit
by
SEO seems like a black art to me, but with an audit and then some optimization of your site you can start bringing in the clients you want organically. My friend John gives us a walk through of the SEO audit part today. You still need to do some optimization, but this is part of
Seth Godin on The Benefit of the Doubt
by
Great post on how to treat customers from Seth Godin. We need to remember this as we treat our customers with respect or not. I had a project go months over this year. When the client asked about it, I told them the truth. I fell in love with another part of my business and
On Baby Changing Areas in a Men’s Bathroom
by
This article from Hugh Wilson reminded me of my similar battles. The worst was the kids store that had a men’s bathroom, no family bathroom and no changing space in the men’s bathroom. Oh, and you couldn’t fit a stroller between the racks of clothes in the store either. For that store, it certainly seemed
Simon Sinek on Social Media and Addiction
by
https://youtu.be/3ev7GXzFTPg I think the “Millennial” thing makes many roll their eyes when they look at videos/blog posts/stuff like this. I do like the bent towards Science and dopamine.

by
The thing I like about this Bullet Journal is the colour. I do my weekly plan by colour so I know what’s going on. If you want to see how I do Bullet Journal, and organize my whole system around going analogue, then you can read about it in Analogue Productivity.
Better Blocker keeps you private
by
Better Blocker updated for iOS 12 and macOS Mojave. I use it on iOS and since I’m iOS first that’s mostly what matters for me. So much tracking and you can stop a bunch of it with Better Blocker
If you’re wondering about new iPhones
by
Then The Sweet Setup has a review. I still don’t think that the new iPhones provide much value though. Certainly not over $1000 of value. So that leaves me maybe looking at Android. Unfortunately it seems I may have to spend a bunch just to get a phone where they keep up with security updates
Apple Watch Series 4 – Why Not Just Disconnet?
by
Where Patrick was excited about this final paragraph in Shawn’s article, I’m wondering why we can’t just disconnect? It allows me to leave my smartphone at home but still be reachable by text or phone (and I can still stream music to my bluetooth AirPods if I’m at the gym or driving the CJ), but
More Goodness in Ferrite for iOS
by
I read this and yes I’ll be purchasing the update to Ferrite. The only reason I haven’t is that I run my business on Profit First and it’s not pay day so I don’t have expenses in my expense account. That means on Sept 25th I’ll make the purchase. Unfortunately, I still don’t see the
