Hats off to 37signals for making their latest Once product, Writebook, 100% free—well, at least for the initial version of the product. Sadly, there are no other export formats, such as PDF or ePub, but having the ability to publish books on the web is a good start.

MacRumors has an in-depth guide to the new home and lock screen changes coming to iOS 18. Placing icons anywhere on the home screen is probably the one change I’m looking forward to seeing. I can’t say I’ll use the hidden app feature that much, but I can see a use for the ability to lock an app.

I’m back to work this morning after a weekend of junior golf for my oldest. He finished 16th out of 80. Not having played the course before and the really challenging conditions on the first two days gave him too much to do on the last day of the competition. Onward to the next competition!

Working from the garden this afternoon was somewhat more productive than I thought. Fresh air, a single screen, and only enough space on the table for my laptop, mug, and notebook. I think I’ll be doing this more often!
