Went along to State of the Browser on Saturday. A really good event. I thoroughly recommend.

I managed to grab some quality time with the Barbican Centre that morning. It’s September, now, but still plenty of vibrant greens to have fun with VSCO’s infrared filters. Shared on Instagram.

Chipping away at the Ravn website in spare moments. Works better than the alpha version. Messaging still a work in progress. Need to get blogging.

Having great fun working with Measured on some comms bits and pieces. Good things happening on the Measured blog.

Created some lightweight CSS for Write.as that succesfully styles all the things, including on post archive pages. Sharing in case it’s a useful starting point for others, if only to save the hassle of figuring out class selectors.

As well as the help centre, helped Vouchsafe with some things around their preview launch this week. Here’s the LinkedIn post by way of way in.

Six photos from a trip to Norwich a week or so ago.

Helped the Vouchsafe people put together a nascent help centre using Notion.

Notion’s a great tool for a scrappy alpha. Its pre-canned callout blocks are so useful.

It’s nearly 10 years since I joined Slack. One of the main things I did there was work on their help centre. It’s nice to be doing this again. Designing help content is a fuzzy brainspace.

An Instagram reel of video snippets I filmed at Bushy Park on Sunday.

Right. Let’s see if I actually use this or not.
