The event is now over, view our round-up below:
We went to The Necropolis for a walk this morning. It surprisingly quiet compared to the park. Or maybe the “graveyards in a pandemic” effect.
Saw a sparrow hawk going through the trees & stones.
Later geese over Glasgow Cathedral, should have brought a camera.
So I think I’ve figured out how to make a time sensitive advent calendar in #GlowBlogs. A bit late. It might do for another time or another time sensitive project.
It involves the Draw Attention pro and my favourite plugin Display Posts.
I couldn’t test the idea at lunchtime as the network is down today.
When it entered the market, Slack was a scrappy, independent entry in the era of worker-centered tools. But five years after formally challenging Microsoft, the company is being acquired by Salesforce for just shy of $30 billion. Casey Newton explains how this signals the end of era, not just for Slack but for workplace tools at large.
This was an interesting read.
I’ve not really spent much time in Slack. I have used Teams most days since the start of the pandemic.
I do have a tendency to prefer ‘one job’ tools (with pipes) rather than suites of apps.
I also have a tendency to bet on tech losers

The sky is grey here today so I took a trip through my flickr. Modified a script to pull down my photos flickr thinks is blue.
There is nothing I could see in the flickr api to filter colours as there is in the search but I noticed the url for the search contains text=&color_codes=7 so I added that in. Sees to have worked.
