  • For the next minor update to Inkwell for Mac, I’m trying to address confusion around the highlight button. Two changes: adding a “new post” button, so it’s more obvious the “highlight” button is a different thing, and giving it a subtle yellow. It’ll ship tomorrow.

  • Airbnb news via TechCrunch:

  • I thought it was fine that they left Tom Bombadil out of The Lord of the Rings movies, but great to hear that Stephen Colbert’s script will give more attention to those early chapters of Fellowship. Could be fun.
