Good morning.

Whenever a website asks me for my Twitter or Facebook URL, what’s to stop me from just putting my Micro.blog link?

Might be the Best iOS 13 feature.

I spent some time this week tweaking my footer. I want to spread the word about Micro.blog, but in a way that suits my style. A few folks asked for the code that I used, so here it is!

The first link is to the Micro.blog homepage, while the svg Micro.blog icon links directly to my profile. Make sure to update the link for the svg or your visitors might end up someplace they weren’t expecting!

As a reminder, this is set-up for the Kiko theme, and I have this snippet in the “Edit Footer” area on the Micro.blog Design tab.

There’s a ton of health information on the Internet, but much of it is spurious.

It’d be great if a big research hospital funded a consumer-focused health information website.

I’m pleased with my updated footer.

It’s been five days since I implemented my iCloud Mail spam rule. Not a single spam email has made it to my inbox, and there have been seven attempts in the last twelve hours.

I’m feeling smug.

The bottom toolbar for email in Mail.app on iOS 13 makes zero sense.

I was expecting a slew of news releases from companies about HomeKit routers & secure video yesterday. Very quiet.
