Web Excursions for January 20, 2014
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 Backblaze. Back up everything.
- Time Warp
- OneThingWell reminded me of this tool that I haven’t tried yet. It uses a smarter algorithm to determine which Time Machine snapshots should be deleted when the drive fills, rather than just the oldest one. Dr. Bunsen is crazy smart.
- Automate the Web - Zapier
- Wow, IFTTT on steroids (plus paid plans). It integrates with and automates over 200 services. I tested GitHub → FlowDock, Dropbox → Pushover and a few others and it works really well.
- Stick your landings! position:sticky lands in WebKit
- This is an old post, but I just now realized that
position: -webkit-sticky
is now working in current versions of Chrome and Safari. Even in Marked… - PowerMate Bluetooth
- Yes.
- SunCycle
- Switch your Sublime Text theme based on sunset/sunrise times for your location. I haven’t actually gotten it to work yet…
