An update on OMGDPR – explaining the format
So, a little under two weeks ago, I wrote a bit about OMGDPR, a hypothetical community-run, open space event where practitioners who build digital products or services, can meet to learn from each other how they’re responding to what amount to seismic changes in privacy law. Me and Maik have been chatting to various organisation […]

Sustainability of the web vs through the web
I referred to this a Sustainability of the web, in a recent blog post about a recorded talk I did about Planet friendly Web development, and halfway through explaining the term I realised it was better expanding on the difference between Sustainability of the web, vs sustainability through the web in a separate post.

Explaining a planet friendly web in 10 minutes

I couldn’t be there physically, but I did get a […]

I started chatting with a friend Maik, and we’re […]

Notes on #NoEstimates in Berlin
Last night I went to see Vasco Duarte, from Oikosofy deliver a talk on project management, with provocative title NoEstimates – an unconventional approach for the “deliver on time” problem.

Visualising the wiki holes you fall down with Pilgrim
I just came across Pilgrim, an interesting web thing that converts pages inrto a more readable, ad-free version of their form self, but also visualises the links you click to get an map out where you end up going as you look through it.

How much CO2 does an office worker generate per year?
I just posted this to friends on Facebook, and it seems a good idea to share it here too, to help with my search: Hello internet friends. Would a kind soul be able to help me out here? I’m doing a recorded 20 minute talk in Feb about the environmental impact of building digital products […]
