Web Excursions for August 29, 2016
Web Excursions are select bookmarks from my travels around the interwebs, because I'm always thinking about you while discovering other people's cool stuff. You mean that much to me. You can see all of my (public) bookmarks on Pinboard, and visit the bookmarks archive for curated lists across the last few years.
Web excursions brought to you in partnership with MindMeister, the best collaborative mind mapping software out there.
- Notion – Docs, wikis, tasks, seamlessly in one.
- “A unified workspace for modern teams.” A nice combination of sharing, project management, and documentation wiki with Slack integration.
- Wonder
- An SMS bot that stores your own questions and their answers, providing answers back to you with a text-based query. It’s like QuickQuestion for your phone…
- BlokDust
- A browser-based interface for visually building synthesizer sounds. Control them with MIDI or computer keyboard. As one might expect with an web-based synth, there are social sharing options as well.
- Vesper, Adieu
- A valuable insight for developers from John Gruber on the demise of Vesper and what he would have done differently.
- flickr cc attribution bookmarklet maker
- A nifty, customizable bookmarklet that can grab everything you need for embedding an image from a Flickr photo page with Creative Commons licensing. Automatically generate an image link and attribution text/link in HTML, Markdown, or WordPress shortcodes.
