My First Year in the App Store

iOS InspirationTrevor McKendrick is going to be releasing a number of posts outlining how his first year as a member of the App Store went. The first post is a good introduction and I’m subscribed for the rest.

I especially liked the transformation his app has undertaken in just a single year. Quite a difference, but still amazingly useful in the first iteration.

Inspiration to say the least.

Facebook Home ads show Facebook at its worst

While I agree with Josh Elman that the ads for Facebook Home have been pretty bad, I cannot, at least fully, agree with the following (from the opening paragraph):

We are more closely connected than ever before, and sharing a special moment or idea has become a natural and primary instinct for most people.

I’d say that people can argue that the opposite is true. We’re less connected with the people around us and we share things which are more trivial and matter very little. The ease by which we can share has enabled that.

I’m more guilty of that than most.

Introducing (Again) New Ulm Wiki

I tried this in the past, but i have it up and running again after some thought and time put in.

New Ulm Wiki will hopefully continue this time and be morphed into the go-to website for people looking for information about New Ulm, MN. Right now, there isn’t much there, but I am going to be contacting some people to try to get a meetup together to start work on content and put forward some ideas for how to get the word out.

Stay tuned for when the time comes for that.
