  • News Corp Readies News App to Address Publishers’ Concerns About Google and Facebook - WSJ

    The service, currently called Knewz.com

    Great idea, atrocious name. I will never go to a website called Knewz.

    The service will aim to promote original news reports rather than those that are quick rehashes of existing articles

    Desperately needed! Very little orignal journalism/reporting going on these days.

  • How to clean your Apple Card - Apple Support

    Place your card in a slot in your wallet or billfold without touching another credit card.

  • It’s my Haiku-iversary! On this day last year, I composed two haiku about cleaning my house and I haven’t stopped yet! 🎉

    August 20,2019
  • It’s such a relief when a technical hurdle that slowed me down for days is resolved. Finished up a big project that clears the way for me to get back to editing.

  • $5/month for Apple Arcade is a decent price point. Much better than I was expecting.
