Just to say after writing that last post I suddenly realized that Reminders has become my Task Manager of choice.

For years it’s been Things … which still lurks .. but Reminders has always been there because ‘family sharing’ .. and then a few weeks ago I asked Siri to remind me to buy something and Siri dropped it into Reminders - not Notes where the shared shopping lists live … I know I know … sorry … because ‘sharing’.

Not only that .. but turns out ‘Shopping’ has a whole auto categorizing thing going on that I had somehow missed … so I moved my quick lists in there and before you know it - other stuff.

It has come a long way since I last used it with vengeance .. not deleting Things yet though.

Two wishes for WWDC

• however they are doing the shopping thing - let me set up other lists to allow similar categorization
• Introduce time boxing and necessarily tighter calendar integration.

The post 🔗 Slashes by Manu got me to thinking …

If

foo.com/contact

takes you to ‘contact’ - but by using a ‘redirect’ and the actual URL is more like

‘stuff.weirdandcrazy.jcaourincag79q8i6iasicnAYT.com’

… is it still a slash page?

Asking for a friend.

Just updated my 🔗 Using ‘page’ .. no longer just personal usage - now added business.

SlashPages are here.

I’d already playing with them without knowing the name. I was nearly ‘done’ and then Pratik shared this. Menu item added.

Hat Tips to @rknightuk @bjhess @sivers @alastairjohnston @manuelmoreale @goblingumbo @pratik @simonwoods - you have each inspired me on this one.

I tried the Spark introductory Premium offer last year - and while some things are interesting and cool - at a renewal of 60 bucks … yeah - not that interesting and cool … and then I just spotted that they seem to be in the SetApp store.

If Craft is the Word/Doc online equivalent to what Google Docs had the opportunity to be.

And Airtable is the Excel/Numbers online equivalent to what Google Sheets had the opportunity to be.

Then

What is the Powerpoint/Keynote online equivalent to what Google Slides had the opportunity to be?

Figma, Miro and Canva don’t seem to be it?

🎈133/366 Seriously people .. this straight quotes and curly quotes difference needs to be fixed. Am I the only one that gets messed up .. regularly.

🎈131/366 I know this has been raised on the past - and the answer is generally way above my pay grade, but thought I would ask again in case there have been any break throughs.

Is there a relatively easy way to add a ‘nested menu’ / drop down item/menu on to the ‘normal’ Micro.Blog menu?

🎈117/366 You’re taking a picture and just want a detail in the distance. Which produces best quality .. zoom as far as can and crop later or pinch on screen to get what you want and then click.

Or is there no difference?

At the beginning of the year I had grand plans for this series. A daily long-form post about something that was rattling my brain that day. And then life. For a while, I was even just dropping markers - to revisit. I came to realise that part of the problem was the complexity of the structure for each post - so that went away. Simplicity really is rather nice. As I write on 240413, I am now going back and filling in the gaps. PLUS - unless something strikes me immediately, I will not classify until the end of the day and go back to move one of the posts of the day into the 366. Also - if you are wondering how I have update the words at the bottom of over 100 posts at a stroke, well - THANK YOU Andy Sylvester and his Glossary plugin.
