    I really enjoy raindrop.io. You can even share bookmark collections. It's pretty awesome! It's easy to add bookmarks and it works for mobile and browsers. It's pretty handy.

    To me this is a video game marketing strategy. It seems to work very well!

  • Posted to Ask DN: Best way to sync your files/folders?, Feb 02, 2016

    I run both Windows and Mac, on multiple computers. I have a computer set up as a server and I can access it anywhere in my house. I usually use samba to connect, you can also mount the hard drive easily.

    This works great because you don't need a crazy expensive computer. A raspberry pi would work. Or a small micro-ATX type computer would work as well.

    Good luck!

    I get a "Whoops, looks like something went wrong." error when I try to sign in. This is a cool idea though, I am definitely interested in making stuff!

    Pexels is a cool site for free stock photography.

  • Posted to Finch: customize any website's content and design directly in the browser, Oct 27, 2015

    I'm actually really interested in how this works. Does the page have predefined editable areas and using finch modifies the database for these areas, or does Finch modify the html (or php) file directly? Does it have to go through Finch's servers in order to make this app work, or does it work independently?

    Either way it's a really awesome implementation of an editable "cms" style editor. Nice work! This would work very well for building initial sites for clients, and then have them do their own design and modifications after the build is complete. I'm not entirely sure if I agree with a subscription based plan though.

    It's beautiful, sure, but the primary function of a website is to gain information. It should be easy to access this information. This site is (very) confusing, and honestly I didn't last very long on it. Form should follow function, in my opinion.

  • Posted to A new minimalist logo for Mini, in reply to Fri Rasyidi , Jul 02, 2015

    I agree. I feel like this flat logo completely ruins the sophistication feel of the mini brand. It cheapens it. Who makes these decisions, and why do companies pay them so much?

    When I first read the title, that's what I thought too. And then I said, "Oh no, another one?!"

    I assume it would be PSDs, images, icons, PDFs, any digital item used for a project.
