A Faster & More Efficient Instapaper →

instapaper:

Instapaper 6.2 just hit the App Store! Our focuses for this release were speed and efficiency, which are evident in three new features:

1. Speed Reading
   
2. Instant Sync
3. Faster Saving

Speed Reading

Use speed reading to get through your Instapaper queue up to three times faster! To turn on…

A great update for one of the apps I use the most on a daily basis. 

Useful Mac →

maniacalrage:

I launched a new site this week called Useful Mac¹:

Macs are such a huge part of my life, I can’t imagine where I’d be without them. I’ve spent thousands of hours installing new applications, customizing icons, designing and abandoning workflows, trying new utilities, widgets and gadgets and generally just using the hell out of Macs and OS X.

And so, dear reader, I look forward to sharing some of this experience with you. I fancy myself someone with good taste, a discerning eye for excellent user experience and design, and someone who loves sharing interesting or useful information with others. Let’s take a journey together toward a prettier, more powerful, more Useful Mac.

The response has been pretty overwhelming. If you’re into this sort of thing, you should check it out.

1. As part of this launch, I finally retired Prettify. Useful Mac will carry on the tradition, however. ↩

Gorgeous site.

So good.

Star Wars Valentine’s Day social media is on point. Different valentine on each social platform (Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram). Well done.

Those love hearts are absolutely amazing!

XOXO Festival 2013: Cabel Sasser, Panic

As a small business owner making software, this speaks to me on many levels. The pressure, the doubt, the questions about the future… Cabel’s talk is excellent and I can’t believe I hadn’t seen it until today. (via Daniel Agee)

Don’t get me wrong, I was already excited about App: The Human Story… but I had no idea Jake & Jed would just blow the roof off this mother. The little clip above is beautiful, even if you exclude my humble contribution to it.

I already had backed this and was looking forward to this, but if this is the level of quality for the whole thing, I am entirely blown away.

This looks really good.
