A Lovely 10C Site!

@matigo Allow me to launch into a short tale - when I first showed my brother Facebook, he gave me a confused look. When I showed him twitter, he asked me what he's supposed to do on there. Same for micro.blog, but with two added comments - 1. You're supposed to pay for this thing? 2. Why is it so difficult to 'create my microblog'?

I think Manton's service is going to be around till he moves on to the next project. It'll grow slowly, partly because he won't advertise and partly because the collaborative Open Web and hopes of "overturning the iceberg" are pipe dreams.

@indigo same here. Now I have a few installed on my phone, but I mostly still only use Daedalus on there. It's weird that spreading my writing thin has led me to actually dumping more of the apps I've tried…

@kdfrawg Scrivener is the king, no doubt! Gingko was useful once for me when I was writing a thing in which parts could be moved around. That's not true for 99% of the cases. The other time it's been useful is when I needed to refer to notes alongside the text. Scrivener does that too, Gingko just does it in an interesting format… :)

You good folks know about gingkoapp.com right? #checkitout

@kdfrawg you don't sit with her to watch?

@matigo I exclusively use tweetbot. Just opened it over the weekend for some reason and it was this weird, gimmicky, teenage colors, over-simplified thing…

@kdfrawg cheers!

Just saw the new twitter app……… ugh.

@kdfrawg yeah the only reason we have HBO is for John Oliver, Vice, and GOT…

@kdfrawg it's basically produced specifically for HBO, so if you're paying for HBO, you're paying for them…
