Even when the food’s not perfect. Even when the server mixes something up (as long as they fix it). Even when there’s something stinky that comes with the order.

Goodbye FeedBurner
With the recently announced demise of Google Reader in Google’s Spring Cleaning post, it looks like Google is getting out of the blog reading business. Therefore, I’ve decided to transition away from FeedBurner, their blog feed publishing platform, as well. (Goodbye RSS subscriber stats of questionable reliability).
The new feed for this site has a link up in the header and here. Please re-subscribe when you get the chance. If you use RSS, you’ll know what to do. (The old feed is still around, not deleted or broken, so it will still work as long as Google lets it. Update: Actually, I ended up having to delete the feed to get rid of the redirect loops.)
If you regularly read RSS, you’re probably looking for a good Google Reader alternative, but I (and many other sites) might add email subscriptions in the future. Email isn’t going anywhere. Let me know if you’d be into that.
Calvin and Hobbes
How is it that there was there never a Calvin and Hobbes TV show? Or was there one that I missed? Somehow my childhood seems incomplete. This helps a little:
If you meet a person who cares about the same obscure things you do, hold on to them for dear life. Sympathy is medicine.
While we may judge ourselves by our motivations, we tend to judge others by their actions.
Since copywriting is interface design, you can do an awful lot of great design in a text editor. Don’t worry about where things will go, or how they will fit. Worry about explaining it clearly and then build the rest of the interface around that explanation.
Pope Francis – “Thrift Shop” Macklemore
This is awesome.

Google Reader, I will miss you
We’ve spent a lot of time together over the years.
It was a good run, but I see you’re ready to move on. Maybe it’s for the best we’re splitting up. I’m sure I’ll find somewhere else to read the Internet.
p.s. It won’t be Google+.
