It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.

- Reposted by SyllieThis is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).

- Long ago I supported a KS where someone tried to launch an ergonomically designed ice cream scoop. Promised to be able to scoop without waiting for the icecream to soften. So happy I got that - full on summer here so I use it a lot. It works like a charm. midnightkitchentools.com/products/mid...

- Today I spoke with family in NL and learnt about thuisgekookt (homemade meal service by and for people in your neighbourhood). This looks like such a great initiative, I am now wondering about alternatives here in AU and elsewhere thuisgekookt.nl (the site is available in english).

- Xmas largely goes by unnoticed, it is 39degC (103F) here today. But I got this cute artsy advent calendar as big distractor to everything that is currently doing my head in. Totally doable for beginners and by an independent creator. Uses @procreate.com prettylittlelines.com/product/chri...
- I love making patterns, and I love playing with symmetry apps. One of my favorites is iOrnament and I just watched this delightful presentation given by its creator at TU/e about the math used with and in the app. There are quite a few good laughs to be had. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQdG...
