How Joe Casabona Stays Organized
by
You should read the whole post but what stuck out to me was the hybrid analogue and digital tools he uses. He says he uses and needs both. I’m 99% analogue for my personal organization of tasks. I use Trello with clients, and am dabbling with Github Issues/Projects/Milestones as an alternative. Every so often I

How Many Apps Can Interrupt You?
by
From Mike at The Sweet Setup: When you launch a new app on your iPhone, 90% of the time the first thing you see is a request to allow notifications. More often than not, the default is “yes.” Don’t believe me? Go into your Settings right now, tap Notifications, and count how many apps have

Freelance Friday 064 – August 2
by
I’ve almost got my new Statamic site ready to launch. No, it won’t have quite everything that I have now. My WooCommerce stuff will run at store.curtismchale.ca (not live yet), at least for now. I also made a few hours progress on The Freelancer’s Guide to Marketing. Needs a complete read through for proofing then

For the Love of a Bookstore
by
Very much enjoyed this piece about Brazenhead, a bookstore that was in New York. I have a local used bookstore, and while it’s not quite the same thing as a late night party, it’s a place I cherish. I head in almost weekly and come home with 2 or on occasion 20 books. I certainly

Feeling Safe on Your Bike
by
Enjoyed this comic about feeling safe on a bike. My city is pretty good with bike lanes, though none are fully seperated from the roadway. We do have a few walking/bike only paths that are going through the city and they’re looking better and better. I could now travel about 1km from my house and

The Revenge of Analog a Book Review
by
While my job is heavily involved in computers and technology, I love analogue things. I’ve even written a book about my own analogue productivity methods because I think they bring a more thoughtful approach to work than digital tools. To say I was interested in The Revenge of Analog by David Sax, was an understatement.

Elk, Thurston and Mercer
by
In my continued quest to complete the Quest for 10 from Mt Waddington’s I tackled another route today. This is one I’ve done a few times, but it’s always been delightful. While you can head to Mercer from one of the 4WD roads and get within a few kilometres, I much prefer to head up

More Stuff is Being Produced so FOMO
by
From Doug Belshaw: Here’s an obvious point: there’s more people online now than there were ten years ago. As a result, there’s more stuff being produced and shared and, because of that, there’s more to miss out on. This is known as the Fear Of Missing Out (or FOMO). He lists a number of great

Freelance Friday 063 – July 26
by
We’re having one of our best weather weeks in a while here in Chilliwack. I got out on a nice run on Monday which took me all the way to the US border, where I met some friendly Americans. Then back up a mountain and to the car. If you’ve found my content helpful then
