Find My Upgrade

I wish that when you use Find My to find your iPhone, it would also flash the flashlight, which would be great for finding it in a bag or a dark room.

On Bluesky: Do you feel powerless to communicate online unless it serves the interests of the people who own the networks you post to? Why not own your own means of distribution, managed as a co-op, and only responsible to you, as a member and customer. No VC, no billionaire, no government control.

Bush at war

Bush at the start of the Iraq war when MSNBC called him a visionary. He looked pretty lost at the time, I remember -- and we all hoped that wasn't true, we hoped he knew what he was doing.

Driving back into Austin there was an incredible view of the huge moon low over downtown, just touching the UT tower. Unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Almost pulled over to take a photo, but instead I snapped this from the car. Kind of neat in its own way.

Niklas Luhmann’s Zettelkasten Method One Pager (1968)

Wooden table with a Shaw-Walker card index on it surrounded by a copy of Norbert Wiener's Cybernetics book, a pile of index cards, a black fountain pen, and some chrysanthemums in a vase.

Personal and community web search engines

Ever since I made the first version of IndieWeb Search, a search engine that let you search personal websites, I have been thinking about the idea of “community search engines.” A community search engine indexes materials related to a specific community. The information sour...
