Overheard on the @profgalloway podcast: Twitter’s re-brand “looks like a wrapper for a condom that’s gonna break. It looks dangerous and gross.” Yup, nailed it.

Joining a Teams meeting is like loading a game on a ZX81. It takes 5 minutes, and there is no guarantee it’ll work. (Sorry, young folk. This reference will be lost on you.)

The X rebrand is the best ad in history for external brand consultants.

Brilliant idea. Ask the internet to design your logo (not brand) in 24 hours and then have your design team pick up the pieces for the rest of time. Go.

Well, that was an exciting bike race. Looking forward to @neverstraysfar’s take.

Has anyone else spotted that Google has gone all infinite scroll? That seems like a big deal to me. What are the ranking criteria now? Not so scrolly on page one?

Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk in a cage fight is like an episode of ‘Black Mirror’. Really, guys?

What’s the difference between a designer that works for a large agency that has layers of management and a turnover in the tens of millions versus a small agency sub-million? Genuine question. Don’t just say salary. #design #uxdesign

It's my #Twitterversary! I have been on Twitter for 16 years, since 22 Jan 2007 (via @twi_age).

iOS 16 battery drain is pitiful. Crippled my phone as much as I can and it is still losing 25% over night. iOS 14 got me 48 hours on a charge. iOS 16, barely makes 24. Progress, huh?
