A typo correction

Two [^3] people reached out to me to point out an error in my “Wonders of Web Weaving, Behind the Scenes” blog post, for which I am sincerely grateful (to those two people, I definitely owe you a coffee or a cookie or a similar delicious treat!). The original introduction co...

Another Interview from “Head in the Cloud 2026”

Here is another little interview from mittwald’s “Head in the Cloud”. I was asked what makes an event more than just a conference. My answer is that there’s no real secret beyond openness: being willing to be vulnerable, admitting mistakes and not making everything feel over...

Wonders of Web Weaving, Episode 25

The twenty-fifth episode of Wonders of Web Weaving is out:

In Episode 25, the final episode of Wonders of Web Weaving (at least for now!), I chat with Emma, the author of emgoto.com about, among other things, blogging about coffee and hiking, the idea of a "hobby blog", projecting posts onto a map, and more.

I hope you enjoy the episode!

Wonders of Web Weaving also has an RSS feed you can use to follow along from wherever you get your podcasts.

Sant Eustachio

#coffeeneuring2026 No. 4; 6.6km round-trip Down in the centro, there are two bars of great note, and everyone has a strong preference for one or the other. No clear winner. Me, I prefer Sant Eustachio. Maybe it’s because I was introduced to it by my lost Italian friend, who...

My Recipe System

Robb’s Weeknote #2023 pointed me to Sophie’s Digital recipe management for fastidious cooks and that forced me to think again about the no-longer-very-plastic plastic folder I have crammed with physical copies of recipes torn from all sorts of places. Roughly every three mon...

New episode: Mapping What Really Matters

What do you do when you open Google Maps to get directions to a restaurant that you know is good and quite nearby, and it simply isn't there? If you're Lauren Leek, you scrape details of every single restaurant in London and build your own unbiassed version of London's food map.

Change

The sun set an hour earlier today. I felt – feel – the fewer daylight hours already, the clocks having changed only last evening. When I played my guitar there was darkness outside and a roaring wind. The sound of the storm was abated, temporarily, by A minor and Fsus2. Wind...

Weeknotes W2

Storm Boelo has been passing through Scotland for the last many hours, and high winds are expected to remain for the rest of the day. This weekend has thus been one of staying inside and staying cosy: of drinking tea (and the remainder of the coffee I had in a bag in the cup...

Morning coffee

For the last month I have had a bag of coffee in the cupboard with enough beans to make one or two cups. I usually drink tea on weekdays, and prefer to have coffee while I am out and about, but because there is a storm forecast, and we had a storm yesterday evening too, I th...

My desk

After "The (My) Desk" from March, 2024. As I was leaving my desk for the day, getting ready to have a cup of tea in bed and wind down for the evening, I caught a glance of a half-folded zine on my desk. The zine has been there for a few days, quietly telling a story that on...

Walking

I stopped in awe. Looking up, I saw a tall tree whose base was yellow and top was red, with all of its leaves glistening in the golden sun that made its way through the clouds we have seen in recent days. An adjacent tree had a combination of green leaves and barren branche...
