Podcasts about Crashlytics

Andrew Tunall is a product engineering leader focused on pushing the boundaries of reliability with a current focus on mobile observability. Using his experience from AWS and New Relic, he's vocal about the need for a more user-focused observability, especially in mobile, where traditional practices fall short. * Career Journey and Current Role: Andrew Tunall, now at Embrace, a mobile observability startup in Portland, Oregon, started his journey at AWS before moving to New Relic. He shifted to a smaller, Series B company to learn beyond what corporate America offered.* Specialization in Mobile Observability: At Embrace, Andrew and his colleagues build tools for consumer mobile apps, helping engineers, SREs, and DevOps teams integrate observability directly into their workflows.* Gap in Mobile Observability: Observability for mobile apps is still developing, with early tools like Crashlytics only covering basic crash reporting. Andrew highlights that more nuanced data on app performance, crucial to user experience, is often missed.* Motivation for User-Centric Tools: Leaving “big observability” to focus on mobile, Andrew prioritizes tools that directly enhance user experience rather than backend metrics, aiming to be closer to end-users.* Mobile's Role as a Brand Touchpoint: He emphasizes that for many brands, the primary consumer interaction happens on mobile. Observability needs to account for this by focusing on user experience in the app, not just backend performance.* Challenges in Measuring Mobile Reliability: Traditional observability emphasizes backend uptime, but Andrew sees a gap in capturing issues that affect user experience on mobile, underscoring the need for end-to-end observability.* Observability Over-Focused on Backend Systems: Andrew points out that “big observability” has largely catered to backend engineers due to the immense complexity of backend systems with microservices and Kubernetes. Despite mobile being a primary interface for apps like Facebook and Instagram, observability tools for mobile lag behind backend-focused solutions.* Lack of Mobile Engineering Leadership in Observability: Reflecting on a former Meta product manager's observations, Andrew highlights the lack of VPs from mobile backgrounds, which has left a gap in observability practices for mobile-specific challenges. This gap stems partly from frontend engineers often seeing themselves as creators rather than operators, unlike backend teams.* OpenTelemetry's Limitations in Mobile: While OpenTelemetry provides basic instrumentation, it falls short in mobile due to limited SDK support for languages like Kotlin and frameworks like Unity, React Native, and Flutter. Andrew emphasizes the challenges of adapting OpenTelemetry to mobile, where app-specific factors like memory consumption don't align with traditional time-based observability.* SREs as Connective Tissue: Andrew views Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) as essential in bridging backend observability practices with frontend user experience needs. Whether through service level objectives (SLOs) or similar metrics, SREs help ensure that backend metrics translate into positive end-user experiences—a critical factor in retaining app users.* Amazon's Operational Readiness Review: Drawing from his experience at AWS, Andrew values Amazon's practice of operational readiness reviews before launching new services. These reviews encourage teams to anticipate possible failures or user experience issues, weighing risks carefully to maintain reliability while allowing innovation.* Shifting Focus to “Answerability” in Observability: For Andrew, the goal of observability should evolve toward “answerability,” where systems provide engineers with actionable answers rather than mere data. He envisions a future where automation or AI could handle repetitive tasks, allowing engineers to focus on enhancing user experiences instead of troubleshooting. This is a public episode.

Fredrik chats with Daniel Eke about creative visual coding, learning through side projects, and a lot more. The discussion revolves around Daniel’s apps: the visualizer Ferromagnetic, polygon drawing tool Handstract, and photo polygonizer Centroid. Code lets you create art which is interactive and immersive in a way many other art forms can’t. Develop your side projects so that you save time - re-use code, structure it in ways which make things easy and fast for you. Focus on hard problems rather than getting all caught up in low-hanging fruit and simple feature requests. Learn the systems you are using, look at others to learn more tricks. Try stuff out, and don’t worry too much about the tools. Build it inside something you already have. Or, use Apple’s Shortcuts - that might be much easier than setting up some service to run a script. The magic of programming is that you can create something valuable by thinking through problems and expressing the solution in code. Thank you Cloudnet for sponsoring our VPS!

I'm Stacey Simms and these are the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now XX In the news is brought to you by Edgepark simplify your diabetes journey with Edgepark XX Our top story this week – Abbott scoops up Bigfoot Biomedical. The deal is expected to close later this year – no financial terms yet disclosed. Abbott and Bigfoot have worked together since 2017 on a connected insulin pen system. Bigfoot Unity exclusively works with Abbott's FreeStyle Libre® Long time listeners will recall that Bigfoot was founded in 2015 around serving people with type 1 diabetes with a closed loop pump system that Byran Mazlish had developed for his wife and son. Mazlish was very secretive at first about the algorithm – this was before people were sure the FDA wouldn't crack down on them – so a journalist nicknamed him Bigfoot. Along the way, the company pivoted to CGM connected SmartPens. I believe Bigfoot was my third interview, back in 2015 – I'll ink up all of the interviews I've done with them in the show notes. https://diabetes-connections.com/?s=bigfoot https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/abbott-to-acquire-bigfoot-biomedical-furthering-efforts-to-develop-personalized-connected-solutions-for-people-with-diabetes-301918254.html XX Low-dose aspirin reduces the risk for type 2 diabetes among older adults and slows the increase in fasting glucose levels over time, new research finds. The data come from a secondary analysis of ASPREE, a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of healthy adults aged 65 years or older, showing that 100 mg of aspirin taken daily for about 5 years did not provide a cardiovascular benefit but did significantly raise the risk for bleeding. It's a big study, more than 16-thousand people. This new analysis shows that individuals taking aspirin had a 15% lower risk for developing type 2 diabetes and that the medication slowed the rate of increase in fasting plasma glucose, compared with placebo, during follow-up. However, lead author Sophia Zoungas, MBBS, PhD, head of the School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia, says, "Major prescribing guidelines now recommend older adults take daily aspirin only when there is a medical reason to do so, such as after a heart attack… Although these new findings are of interest, they do not change the clinical advice about aspirin use in older people at this time." https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/996058 XX A class-action lawsuit filed against Medtronic (NYSE: MDT)+ alleges that the company's insulin delivery devices shared patient data with third parties. The lawsuit — filed by the plaintiff “A.H.” in U.S. District Court in Central California — levels allegations against Medtronic and its MiniMed and InPen devices. It addresses MiniMed's transmission and disclosure of personally identifiable information and protected health information to Google and other third parties. Per the lawsuit, the data was transmitted via tracking and authentication technology, including Google Analytics, Crashlytics, Firebase Authentication and related tools. A.H. says these technologies, installed on the website and/or mobile applications, include the InPen iOS and Android applications. “Information about a person's health is among the most confidential and sensitive information in society, and its mishandling can have serious consequences, including embarrassment, discrimination, and denial of insurance coverage,” the lawsuit reads. A Medtronic spokesperson issued the following statement via email: We have strong processes, technologies, and people in place to safeguard and protect our information and systems, the information of our business partners, and most importantly, the privacy and safety of the patients and healthcare providers that use our products.” https://www.massdevice.com/lawsuit-patient-data-sharing-medtronic-diabetes/ XX Interesting new way to look at type 2 – not weight loss or medication, but about reducing how much blood glucose goes up and stays up after eating and drinking. University of Virginia Daniel Cox says this is called Glucose Everyday Matters, or GEM – aims to prevent blood sugar spikes via educated food and drink selection. This is coupled with physical activity to hasten recovery when blood-sugar spikes do occur. So someone might indulge in a piece of fruit or a small, sweet treat, knowing how it will affect them, and then go for an evening stroll to help even out their blood sugar. Sounds really simple, but in its first study, it helps almost 70-percent of people put their type 2 into remission without weight loss or medication. The National Institutes of Health has provided $3.5 million for a large-scale clinical trial Cox himself went from an A1C of 10.3 at the time of diagnoses to reading consistently under 6.0 for the past 13 years on no medication using his approach. https://newsroom.uvahealth.com/2023/08/31/radical-new-approach-to-managing-type-2-diabetes-receives-3-5-million/ XX Final preparations are in place to initiate the first clinical site for DIAGNODE-3 in the United States, and additional sites are expected to be initiated over the coming months. Approximately 10-12 clinical sites across the US are planned to be initiated, expanding the DIAGNODE-3 trial in the US and eight European countries to approximately 60 clincal sites in total. DIAGNODE-3 is designed to confirm the efficacy and safety of the antigen-specific immunotherapy Diamyd® in patients aged 12 to 29 years recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and carrying the genetic HLA DR3-DQ2 marker. Approximately 40% of all screened patients carry the genetic HLA DR3-DQ2 haplotype. This proportion aligns well with expectations based on previous Diamyd® clinical trials and published epidemiological research. Supported by published retrospective analyses and prospective clinical trials, the presence of the genetic HLA DR3-DQ2 haplotype determines the likelihood of responding to Diamyd® therapy, and serves as one of the main inclusion criteria in the DIAGNODE-3 trial. "Patient recruitment is a complex and central element in any trial and it is encouraging to see a significant and continuous uptick in the screening rate and that the observed frequency of the genetically defined responder group enrolled into DIAGNODE-3 confirms our previous observations", says Ulf Hannelius, President & CEO of Diamyd Medical. "This shows the operational and clinical feasibility of our precision medicine approach to Type 1 Diabetes and we look forward to expanding the trial to the United States". https://finance.yahoo.com/news/registrational-phase-iii-trial-type-142600082.html XX A low-carbohydrate diet during pregnancy may have some benefits in gestational diabetes, but overall, low-carbohydrate diets are not associated with any significant differences in outcomes. That was the conclusion of a presentation at the ADA Scientific Sessions. That was back in June but I just learned about it, so I'm passing along to you in case you missed it as well. During a debate at the American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions, Amy M. Valent, DO, MCR, associate professor in the division of maternal-fetal medicine in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Oregon Health & Science University, said identifying Teri L. Hernandez, PhD, RN, associate dean of research and scholarship in the College of Nursing and professor in the department of medicine and the division of endocrinology, metabolism and diabetes at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, agreed that the first line of therapy with gestational diabetes is nutrition. However, Hernandez said, low-carbohydrate diets are not the only approach in gestational diabetes treatment with nutrition. Currently, dietary advice for treating gestational diabetes is inconsistent, and current professional guidelines have limitations and biases, according to Valent. Different diet strategies include low-carbohydrate, low glycemic index and total energy restriction eating plans, according to Valent. Valent said ACOG guidelines recommended a low-carbohydrate diet for gestational diabetes until the most recently revised edition in January. Valent reviewed several major landmark studies demonstrating that gestational diabetes treatment can decrease pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia and large for gestational age infants. “These studies were in the era where treatment of diabetes in pregnancy involved recommending a low-carbohydrate diet,” Valent said. “The concern with lowering carbohydrates is the risk of consuming lower nutrient-dense foods and resulting in the body to produce ketones, which may be associated with negative effects on the developing baby.” “Pregnancy is dynamic. Nobody's the same today as they were yesterday. They're going to be different 1, 2 or 3 weeks from now, and the nutritional demands and the fetal growth and development stage are going to be different,” Valent said. “So, nutritional demands are going to vary.” Hernandez also added that women and girls tend to be priced out of good nutritional patterns, which is an issue not only in the pregnancy field, but also in the global community. According to Hernandez, it is important to create ways moving forward to identify what nutritional patterns are best that are also affordable for families, especially in lower-income settings. https://www.healio.com/news/womens-health-ob-gyn/20230905/experts-debate-benefits-of-lowcarb-diets-for-gestational-diabetes XX XX Commercial – Edgepark XX Can ChatGPT help answer questions about diabetes? In a recent study published in the journal PLoS ONE, researchers tested chatGPT, a language model geared for discussion, to investigate whether it could answer frequently asked diabetes questions. In the present study, researchers evaluated ChatGPT's expertise in diabetes, especially the capacity to answer commonly requested questions related to diabetes in a similar manner as humans. The 'Frequently Asked Questions' section of the Diabetes Association of Denmark's website, viewed on 10 January 2023, included eight questions. The researchers designed the remaining questions to correlate to particular lines on the 'Knowledge Center for Diabetes website and a report on physical activity and diabetes mellitus type 1. Across the 10 questions, the proportion of correct responses ranged from 38% to 74%. Participants correctly identified ChatGPT-generated replies 60% of the time, which was over the non-inferiority threshold. Males and females had 64% and 58% chances of accurately recognizing the artificial intelligence-generated response, respectively. Individuals who had past contact with diabetes patients had a 61% chance of precisely answering the questions, compared to 57% for those who had no prior contact with diabetes patients. In contrast to the initial premise, participants could discern between ChatGPT-generated and human-written replies better than tossing a fair coin. While ChatGPT demonstrated some potential for accurately answering frequently asked questions, issues around misinformation and the lack of nuanced, personalized advice were evident. As large language models increasingly intersect with healthcare, rigorous studies are essential to evaluate their safety, efficacy, and ethical considerations in patient care, emphasizing the need for robust regulatory frameworks and continuous oversight. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20230905/Can-ChatGPT-be-a-diabetes-consultant-Study-probes-the-potential-and-pitfalls.aspx XX SAN MATEO, Calif., Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- On November 5, diabetes nonprofit Beyond Type 1 will join more than 550 official charity partners and philanthropists raising awareness and funds while participating in the world's largest marathon, the TCS New York City Marathon.

To date, Wayne and Jeff have raised over $32M for Digits from some of the best in the business including Peter Fenton @ Benchmark and Jess Verrilli @ GV and then with the most incredible base of angels with the founders from Box, Github, Stitch Fix, Tinder, Gusto and more. Prior to Digits, Wayne and Jeff co-founded Crashlytics, acquired by Twitter for a 9-figure sum in Jan 2013 and then acquired from Twitter by Google in 2017. If that was not enough they are also LPs in some of the world's most exclusive funds and angels in the likes of Gusto, OpenDoor and SoFi to name a few. In Today’s Episode You Will Learn: 1.) How did Jeff and Wayne make their way into the world of tech and startups? How did Wayne crashing a startup dinner start everything for them? 2.) How did Jeff and Wayne's prior success with Crashlytics impact their operating mindset scaling Digits today? What worked? What did not work? What gets easier with time? What gets harder the second time around? 3.) What have been Wayne and Jeff's biggest lessons from having a remote team from Day 1? What structure and framework do they use to hire the best remote talent? How does that change at the exec level? How do they think about optimising product management for remote teams? 4.) How would Wayne and Jeff summarise their design philosophy with Digits? Why does Wayne believe "minimalism only favours the designer"? When does it make sense to actually add some complexity to your product? 5.) Digits raised $33M pre-launch, why did they favour this approach? How do they think about when to transition from lean and iterative to aggressive and pouring fuel on the fire? Why did they choose to work with Peter Fenton? How do they think about optimising their angel network?

In this episode of the iPhreaks Show the panel introduces themselves and discusses their favorite tools and what their builds look like. They share their journeys in iOS development and their experiences in large teams compared to smaller teams. They consider how iOS has changed since they first started iOS development.  The panel discusses what CI/CD’s they are using. They discuss, Xcode, VScode and the Dash app. They move on to testing, explaining that they generally use what apple provides unless they need something that digs a little deeper. They discuss Fastlane as a deployment tool. Tools they use for crash reports include Sentry, Xcode, and Crashlytics. For debugging the panel discusses Reveal, Sourcetree, SwiftLint, Charles proxy, and Pony debugger. Charles wonders what they prefer for their backend. Alex Bush explains that it depends on the size of the company. Larger companies prefer custom-built backends. They consider Ruby on Rails, Realm, and Runscope for smaller companies.

Wayne Chang is a serial entrepreneur and angel investor. His latest company, Crashlytics, was acquired by Twitter in a 9-figure acquisition, its largest acquisition at the time. 5 years later, Crashlytics was acquired again, this time by Google. Wayne is also a prolific angel investor with a portfolio that includes the likes of OpenDoor, SoFi, Gusto, JetSmarter and Planet Labs just to name a few. If that was not enough, Wayne is also a limited partner in several prominent funds including the likes of 137 Ventures, Baseline Ventures, and Boston Seed Capital. In Today’s Episode You Will Learn: 1.) How did Wayne make his way into the world of founding tech companies and what was the founding story with Crashlytics? 2.) Why does Wayne believe that one of the first hires founders must make is a recruiter? What are the benefits of having this as a dedicated function so early? What must founders look for in these early recruiter hires? 3.) Why does Wayne believe that with regards to VC, you "must avoid the board room"? What is a better environment to interact and pitch? How can early stage startups look to stand out in the rather process driven pitching game? 4.) What is the optimal way for founders to be put in touch with VCs? Should founders speak to associates in the fundraising days? Why does Wayne believe the power of the warm intro is lopsided? 5.) How can founders look to create a sense of urgency within the VC community when raising and closing their round? How can founders look to create a sense of FOMO within the investor class they are pitching? Should they name other funds they are seeing?

At age 32, Wayne Chang is already one of the most successful entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley and renowned for building innovative companies that solve real pain points. His latest venture, Crashlytics, sold to Twitter about a year after it launched—and was valued at ~$300 million at Twitters IPO. But Wayne started his first company much younger: since age 7, he has been building ventures, and he's played an important role in a wide variety of leading tech companies, including Dropbox, Napster, and i2Hub. In this fascinating discussion, Wayne shares his unparalleled insights about the evolving art and science of entrepreneurship in a technology-driven society, as well as his advice on how to build game-changing ventures in a notoriously uncertain and competitive landscape. Besides entrepreneurship, Wayne is also an avid angel investor. He has early investments in companies like DraftKings, Tablelist, SoFi, ZenPayroll, Planet Labs, JetSmarter, and Slash Keyboard. He is a limited partner in several prominent venture funds. Wayne originally dropped out of UMass Amherst as an undergraduate, and he was recently awarded an honorary PhD from his alma mater, recognizing him as a leader who stands to transform the world. We hope you enjoy this fascinating discussion with Wayne Chang! And remember to visit IVY.com to enjoy access to a lifetime of learning, growth, and impact through in-person collaborations with world-class leaders, thinkers, and institutions.

"We don't like being the biggest of anything, we find the edge cases." 130,000,000 containers launched daily. Some of their acquisitions were in public cloud, they don't move them in-house. They're actually pushing new services out to AWS where they can. Vine, TellApart, Crashlytics, MoPub, BlueFin, etc. Ad-serving is mostly in AWS.

Jeff Seibert is an experienced serial-entrepreneur and currently Senior Director of Product at Twitter. Previously, Seibert was the CEO of Crashlytics, which he co-founded in 2011 with Wayne Chang. Crashlytics delivered crash analysis tools for iOS and Android apps via an SDK that reached 300 Million mobile devices worldwide. Crashlytics was acquired by Twitter in 2013 for $259m. In 2007, Seibert co-founded Increo and served as its COO and lead architect until its acquisition by Box in August of 2009. He subsequently oversaw the integration of Increo’s document preview and annotation technologies into the company's cloud-based content platform. A special thank you to Mattermark for providing all the data displayed in today's show and you can find out more about Mattermark here!    In Today's Episode You Will Learn:   1.) How Jeff made his move into the wonderful world of tech?  Today we are going to break up your story into 3 chapters: 1.) Acquisition by Box:  What was it like going to Sand Hill Road to raise in 2009? How much runway would Jeff advise for a startup and how can companies know whether a strategic acquisition is optimal or whether they should continue building with a further round? Jeff has spoke before about being overly transparent with this team about the acquisition. What are the problems with being overly transparent and how can you balance the two?  2.) Acquired by Twitter: At what point did Jeff transition to thinking the acquisition by Twitter would be a beneficial and viable and why? A reason for Jeff being favourable to the acquisition was Twitter's agreement of continued investment in the space. How can founders negotiate and ensure that this occurs with their acquisition? One of the mistakes stated about the acquisition by Twitter was the reporting structure. How can founders ensure that they are speaking to the VPs of engineering, CEOs etc and attain the support they need?  3.) Life at Twitter:  How life is following the acquisition? What are Jeff's plans for the future as Senior Director of Product at Twitter?   Items Mentioned In Today's Episode: Jeff' Fave Book: How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie Jeff's Fave Blog or Newsletter: Daring Fireball   As always you can follow The Twenty Minute VC, Harry and Jeff on Twitter here!

APF [Andreas, Patrick, Sven] sprechen ins Mikrofon und die Worte beinhalten ihre Empfehlungen an digitalen und analogen Schreibutensilien. Garniert wird das ganze mit jeder Menge frischer Samples. Die Frage welche alle Festlandbewohner so bewegt scheint 2014 zu sein, wie notiert man als Pilot eigentlich so. Ein Glück sind noch genügend Sitzplätze in der 60er Jahre Flugmaschine frei, um beim Erkundungsflug teilzunehmen. Setzen, Zigaretten raus und zuhören wie man so auf 8.000 Höhenmeter Notizen macht. Lieber Fluggast, wenn dir das Gehörte gefällt oder dir Sorgenfalten auf die edle Stirn fabriziert, dann haben wir etwas für dich: iTunes Bewertungen. Überbleibsel Aller Anfang ist schwer. Auch wenn erst keiner so recht was sagen will, irgendwann gibt Patrick dann doch zu, dass er den ersten Punkt auf die Tagesordnung gesetzt hat und äußerst sich leicht befangen dazu. Mute Switch Mini Rant Patrick stört(e) der Mute-Switch bei Apple. Mittlerweile hat er sich dran gewöhnt, dass dieser bei Third-Party Apps nicht ignoriert werden darf… eine Sache die durchaus nützlich wäre bei der ein oder anderen Alarm Anwendung (z.B. Due als kompletter Ersatz für die vorinstallierte Uhr). Fakt ist: Einzig die Clock.app von Apple darf sich über den Stummschalter erheben und den schlauen Handapparat mit dem Leuchtedisplay lauthals zum tönen bringen. Nun, in dieser Rant wundert sich Pilot P., warum zum Beispiel die Erinnerungen App nicht auch dieses Feature mitbringt. Die Antwort folgt auf dem Fuße von seinen zwei Co-Piloten. Es handele sich nicht um einen Fail, sondern ist sowas von durchdacht, denn wer will schon im Meeting mit Deutschlands nächsten Börsenhai von einem Reminders Alarm daran erinnert werden, den gelben Sack vor die Tür zu tragen. Okay, Patrick sieht ein, dass es nicht cool wäre in Mitten einer Besprechung aufspringen, den Konferenzraum zu verlassen und hastig zu nuscheln “Entschuldigung, … muss nun das Unkraut im Vorgarten jähten”. Fantastisch, um es mit Svens Worten zu sagen, dass dieses Rätsel nun gelöst wurde dank Sherlock Fechner und Dr. Zeitler. Bildbearbeitung: Acorn, iPhoto Bashing, Geotagging Andreas räumt auf. Zu aller Erst macht er auf die Untat schlechthin aufmerksam: Acorn - die Photoshop-Alternative der Herzen - haben wird völlig unerwähnt gelassen in der letzten Episode. Das geht so gar nicht, deshalb sagt er uns was im supergut gefällt: Es ist das Crop-Tool. Patrick muss sich da erst einmal die Ohren waschen gehen, denn das ist sein Aufreger Nummer eins bei Acorn… so unterschiedlich sind die Geschmäcker. Was Andreas einwandfrei findet ist, dass man einfach nur C drücken muss und dann ein halbautomatischer Algorithmus schon einmal die Ecken korrekt anschneidet. Gerade bei Screenshots ist das wohl super handy. Patrick hingegen gefällt nicht, dass es keinen Shortcut gibt, um automatisch die Breite auf beiden Seiten zu erweitern oder verringern. Teil 2 des Re-Bashings ist, dass iPhoto ja bei Sven und Patrick schlecht abgeschnitten in der letzten Folge. Über dieses grobe Faul war Andreas not amused. Deshalb schlussfolgert er, das jemand der iPhoto einen Buhmann schimpft auch für Aperture ungute Worte von der Zunge fallen lassen müsse – beide haben ja schließlich auch dasselbe Library-Format. Patrick hustet sich einen Weg ans Mikrofon und führt an, dass er nichts über Aperture als Verwaltungsprogramm kommen lässt. Smartfolders und und und; da kann Herr iPhoto nicht mithalten. Gespannt erwarten jedoch alle wie gut bzw. karg, schlecht, abgespeckt der Nachfolger für OS X daherkommt… wenn er denn einmal da ist. Wo Andreas aber uneingeschränkt recht hat ist – ganz ohne Stop- und Warnschild, dass sind Geotags. Die werden nämlich von einigen Filter-Apps entfernt auf iOS – auch einige in der letzten Sendung genannte Apps sind nicht freizusprechen von dieser Greultat. Der nötige Umweg ist dann, diese mit einer App wie Mappr nachträglich wieder hinzuzufügen. Mutmaßlich wird das so gehandhabt, da die Apps den User nicht noch damit belästigen wollen, den Zugriff auf die hochheiligen Lokationsdaten freizugeben. Kurz: Nutzerfreundlichkeit und 0-Misstrauen vs. Features. Dubsmash & Co. So. Nun gibt’s endlich was richtiges. Ein digitales Kulturgut quasi. Instagram war nie wirklich Patrick sein Ding, Snapchat, Vine und Konsortien gehen völlig an ihm vorbei – er schiebt’s aufs Alter. Aber… ein leuchtender Lichtstrahl viel neulich vom Horizont direkt auf eine kleine Berliner App…. Dubsmash. Dieses Schmuckstück trifft genau Patricks Nerv. Hier darf man Lippensynchron faxen machen zu Audioschnipsel von der Dubsmash-Community. Da ist alles mit dabei von Harald Glööckler bis zu Bud Spender und Terence Hill Samples. Das Ergebnis ist ein kleines Video, dass ihr an die Oma oder euern Schwarm im Büro nebenan schicken könnt. Richtig gut. Auch wenn so die große Liebe zerbrechen sollte, das Video war es alle Mal wert. So viel steht fest. Artikel: Dubsmash, die neue Viral-App aus Berlin Snapselect Nachdem Sven so begeistert von Macphun Produkten ist, hat die Software-Schmiede nun jetzt für nur 13,99 € extra noch eine App rausgehauen. Damit sollt ihr fortan Bilder auf dem Mac einfacher aussortieren können. Nach einer ersten Probefahrt findet Patrick das Teil soweit ganz sympathisch und kann nun vielleicht schneller die Bilder von 6 Monaten aussortieren. Schaut einfach selbst. Im YouTube Kanal gibt’s auch noch mehr für die Leute die nicht so einfach die Patte raushauen wollen. Überschallneuigkeiten Mein Grundeinkommen Mein Grundeinkommen sammelt konstant Spenden bis die 12.000 € Marke erreicht ist. Dann wird das liebe Geld verlost und ein Glücklicher darf dann 1.000 € Grundeinkommen für ein Jahr lang beziehen kann. Ganz klar eine super Sache nach Patrick. Der wischt sich nun das Wasser aus den Augen und schaut was Sven als nächste Neuigkeit in der Hinterhand hat. Pyro — ein feuriges Wearable Bei dem PYRO Wearable brennt es einem im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes die Augenbrauen vor lauter Staunen weg. Das Armband erlaubt nämlich das Copperfield-mäßige Verschießen von brennenden Kugeln aus dem Handgelenk. Für 174 US$ stiehlt man damit jedem zukünftigen Apple Watch Besitzer die Show. Link zum Bild: Dhalsim Co-Pilot und Street Fighter 2 Pionier Patrick ist auch schon ganz aus dem Häuschen. Wenn es 2015 ein unnötiges Gadget sein darf, dann bitte schön dieses. Er klaut jetzt schon der Freundin heimlich Tampons, um so genug Patronen zu haben, wenn das Gadget irgendwann mal an seinem Handgelenk ist. Generali Versicherung und Wearables Auch die Krankenversicherer, in diesem Fall die Generali, kommen auf die Wearables. Tarifanpassungen soll es entsprechend der Schrittzahl auf dem eignen FitBit geben — am besten vor dem nächsten Check schnell noch den Schrittzähler bei dem Schleudergang in die Waschmaschine schmeissen oder dem eigenen Vierbeiner an’s Halsband knipsen um die Stats zu pushen. Zack. Schon seid ihr im kostengünstigeren Tarif. Der Übercast weiß wie’s geht. Keine Ursache. Weiterlesen. Microsoft kauft HockeyApp Microsoft acquires HockeyApp: http://t.co/hwgDUvy2xU— HockeyApp (@hockeyapp) December 11, 2014 Mehr Info: HockeyApp joines Microsoft Microsoft acquires HockeyApp, leading mobile crash analytics and beta distribution service for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone Damit ist wohl noch auch die letzte “große” Beta Testing Platform aufgekauft. TestFlight hat sich ja Apple geschnappt und Crashlytics ist seit einiger Zeit bei Twitter beheimatet. Flic - Bluetooth Button Für alle, aber vor allem für Patrick, die gerne eine Interaktion zwischen der physischen und der virtuellen Welt herstellen wollen gibt es jetzt den Bluetooth Button FLIC. Diese Go-Go-Gadgetetto Knöfpchen verbindet sich mit dem Smartphone und schickt dann bei einmal drücken eine Email an die Schwiegermutter, startet bei zweimal Drücken automatisch die nächste Game of Thrones-Folge oder verpasst eurem Erzfeind einen Stromschlag sofern ihr ihn dazu bewegen könnt das in Deutschland illegale Add-on zu tragen. Bei der Gelegenheit verweist der physisch-virtuelle Grenzgänger Patrick gerne nochmals auf ein Alternativprodukt namens ‘Pressy’ und den ‘Bttn’ für IFTTT. Workflow - Mächtig viel iOS Automatisierung gaaaanz easy Quelle: Workflow – Powerful automation made simple. So, nun ist die App endlich draußen und Patrick hat eine neue App in seiner persönlichen Top 5. Schaut’s euch einfach an. Damit kann sogar Oma ein Ani-GIF erstellen und dem Hauspudel automatisch ein ★★★★★ Menü kredenzen. Ein klasse Pinsel. COBI – Connected Biking – Ein Kickstarter aus Deutschland Schön, wenn Hardware-Innovationen auch mal aus Deutschland kommen. Das Team von iCradle bastelt mit COBI daran euer Fahrrad ein ziemliches Stück intelligenter zu machen. Wenn es die Biker unter euch begeistert, was da in Frankfurt ersonnen wird, dann schmeißt gleichmal ein paar Euro ins Kickstarter-Schweinderl, auch wenn das Projekt schon erfolgreich gefundet ist! Für Hipster-Single-Speeds übrigens gänzlich ungeeignet — rein optisch, natürlich. Giveaway iPhone 6 und iPhone 6 Plus Der Übercast scheut wieder mal keine Kosten und Mühen. Ist ja auch Weihnachten… deshalb gibt’s nun ein iPhone 6 und ein iPhone 6 Plus zu gewinnen… und zwar diese Zwo hier: Da hat @_patrickwelker tatsächlich schon die neuen iPhone 6 “Übercast” Editions am Start. pic.twitter.com/caxsV7Phw0— Der Ubercast (@derubercast) September 10, 2014 Der Clou ist natürlich das die Geräte handsigniert an die Gewinner geschickt werden. Um diese Prunkstücke zu gewinnen bitte auf Twitter den folgenden Tweet absetzten: »#ichwilleinkind von @derubcerast und außerdem ein Limited Edition iPhone 6 für meinen goldenen Schrein.« Der Hashtag in Kombination mit unserem Twitter-Handle ist das einzig wichtige. Beim Rest könnt ihr auch kreativ sein. Viel Glück. Notizen im Allgemeinen Welche Arten von Notizen macht ihr? Diese Frage wird in die Runde geworfen von Patrick. Er jedenfalls macht oft kurze Notizen, welche in folgende Kategorien passen: - Kommandozeilen-Befehle - Webseiten "Erinner-Mich" abseits von Pinboard.in in einer TEMP Datei (Scratch file) - Geschenkideen und so was - Wichtige Daten-Schnipsel, zum Beispiel wann die beste Zeit ist, um mit Tomaten zu reden Mittlere oder längere Notizen umfassen bei ihm StackExchange Antworten, Entwürfe für Emails oder Forenbeiträge, Dokumentationszusammenfassung (z.B. die wichtigsten Features und Tastaturkürzel für eine App). Was er nicht mehr in nvALT haut sind so Sachen wie Rezepte oder die eigenen Blog Posts, dafür hat er mittlerweile eigene Ordner. Auch Sven nutzt ein digitales Scratchpad für kurze Notizen. Im Business macht er natürlich auch Notizen, meist unterscheidet er zwischen Notizen, die als Referenz zu werten sind und denen die eher temporären Charakter haben. Genauso oft kommt es bei ihm aber zu handschriftlichen Notizen: Sven ist ja ein Verfechter der analogen Kunst. Er ist irgendwie beim “Klassiker” hängen geblieben und nutzt das Moleskine Cahier Journal in der Variante “groß & nackt”, sprich A5 und unliniert (2er Pack für 10,50€). Für Meetings sind bei dem Business-Tiger handschriftliche Notizen immer noch zu werten als die höflichste Form. Zudem sind sie ideal um sich kreativ auszutoben, z.b. mit Sketch Noting oder Scribbeln. Von Moleskine gibt es inzwischen auch eine ganze Reihe an Evernote kompatiblen Notizbücher, aber Scanbot tut es im Zweifel auch. Übrigens, Moleskins Sachen gibt es mittlerweile auch in der Galleria Kaufhof. Für die modischen Kleinschreiber unter euch, die ihr Notizbuch gerne in der Hosentasche verknicken gibt es natürlich die äußerst hippen, aber in Deutschland nach wie vor sehr seltenen Field Notes Notizbücher. Die Editionen sind wirklich außergewöhnlich, hierzulande gibt es allerdings maximal die Standardausgaben. Aber wenn ihr in einer größeren Stadt wohnt, so stehen die Chancen laut Patrick nicht schlecht, dass ihr in der Papeterie eures Vertrauens auch mal exotischere Field Notes findet. Da Sven zu den Stiftverlierern gehört (und’n alter Turnbeutelvergesser ist,) greift er bei Stiften nach einigen teuren Lehrstücken auf den günstigen, aber sehr guten Pilot G2 Gelstift zurück. Bei 3 Stück für 7,98€ sind einzelne Verluste einigermaßen zu verkraften. Wenn es denn dann einmal bunt wie ein Pfau werden soll im analogen Notizbuch, dann greift Wolkenstürmer Sven auf die Muji Gel Pens 0.5mm zurück. Der schlägt mit ca. 1,30 € pro Stück zu buche. Das Sketch Note Buch (24,99 €) findet Sven auch gut. Denn wer seine trögen handschriftlichen Notizen visuell etwas aufwerten will und damit auch einen völlige neue Zuhör-Notiz-Ratio erleben will, der sollte sich dringend das Sketchnote Buch von Mike Rohde zulegen. Im Juni in Episode 6 war Patrick noch kein Analoger, jetzt ist er’s aber und dankbar dafür. Andreas bleibt eisenhart und fährt unbeeindruckt rein digital weiter. Denn, wie die meist schwarz-weiße Applewerbung, so fährt Andreas das Minimalprogramm. Wenn es mal irgendetwas gibt, dass es wert ist erfasst zu werden, dann hält er diese Notizen meist nur kurz und temporär fest. Meetingnotizen macht er beispielsweise in Mindmaps, Sachen die er lernt werden hingegen direkt an dem Ort gespeichert, wo er Referenzen ablegt. Als jemand der mal Snippets als Code Snippet Manager genutzt hat auf dem Mac (nun ist es doch wieder nvALT + Markdown) fragt Patrick sich, was Andreas dafür nutzt seinen C-o-d-e verwaltbar zu machen. Des ischt klar beim Andi, denn der war lange Zeit CodeBox sehr zugetan, nun benutzt er Dash. Ein Tipp für die analogen “Code”-Manager aus Wien, hier gibt es übrigens auch eine vortreffliche iOS App für genau diesen Spezialfall… die Vor- und Nachteile des Gackerl Sackerl wurden ausführlich vor der Sendung erörtert… in der Sendung schleicht es sich auch immer mal wieder ein. Hach ja, Fäkalhumor ist schon was feines. Mac & iOS Patrick’s Anfänge waren bei Circus Ponies NoteBook, eine App die ähnlich wie Microsofts OneNote alles kann und dabei den Charme eines Papiernotizbuchs per Software vermitteln will. Heute gibt es auch “modernere” Looks, welche das analoge Flair auf den Mac bringen. Da keiner von uns ein wirklicher Fan von dem Ansatz ist, gibt es leider, leider auch keine Links. Wovon aber Sven und Patrick und eventuell auch der mindnodige Andreas Fans sind, dass ist nvALT von Brett Terpstra (Urvater der App: Notational Velocity). nvALT ist Patrick’s Notizen-Hub. Mit 88 mp/h geht’s Zurück in die Zukunft und mit 88% ist auch die Wahrscheinlichkeit gesetzt, dass er nvALT am jeweiligen Tag nur zur Suche benutzt. Falls er die Datei dann doch einmal länger editiert macht er das per Shortcut und öffnet die Datei in FoldingText, SublimeText oder wo auch immer. Übrigens, … in diesem Post beschreibt Patrick wie er geschwind wie der Wind seine Notizen mittels Keyboard Maestro ablegt: Updated Notes Palette Filing Macro. Ach ja… FoldingText findet Patrick auch “besonders cool”, da es rein von der sauberen Ansicht her ein Art Marked mit Editiermöglichkeiten ist. Inline-Links zeigt die App nur als Links an, deshalb wirkt euer Markdown extrem sauber, fast wie Rich Text. An dieser Stelle sei auch Typora empfohlen, welches sich momentan in der Betaphase dem wagemutigen Tester bereitwillig in die Arme wirft (Danke an dieser Stelle für den Tipp an Passagier @confluencepoint). Wir halten fest: nVALT ist super… für kleine Notizen, zum schnellen auffinden von Textdateien, und bei Patrick immer offen, da es rank und schlank im vertikalen Modus kaum Platz wegnimmt. Für Neulinge merkt Sven auch gerade einmal das Erkennungsmerkmal von nvALT schlechthin an: Die Suchmaske dient gleichzeitig auch dazu Textdateien zu erstellen. Sven schreibt dort seine Meeting-Notizen (fortlaufender Weise). Somit kann er je nach Projekt den letzten Stand schnell erkennen und quasi an Ort und Stelle weiterschreiben. Dazu nutzt er natürlich gerne TextExpander. Die Magie von TextExpander haben wir ja schon in UC#014 ausführlich vorgestellt und natürlich ist gerade das Notizen erfassen eine der Bereiche in der TextExpander Unglaubliches vollbringt. Beim Erfassen von Gesprächsnotizen - besser bekannt als “Meeting Minutes” - helfen beispielsweise kleine Snippets für das Datum, optische Trenner, Aufgaben oder einzelne Wörter, die öfters genutzt werden. Natürlich kann man sich auch mit großen Snippets, die die gesamte Notizstruktur vorgeben helfen. Auf OS X unterstützt jeder Editor TextExpander, bei iOS ist es ggf. etwas eingeschränkt, aber die allermeisten ernsthaften Editoren bieten ein Sync mit den TextExpander Snippets an, und, für den Notfall gibt es ja noch das TextExpander Customer Keyboard auf iOS 8. Für seine Meeting-Notizen nutzt Sven auch Trick 17 - welchen auch Patrick sehr hoch schätzt - … Trommelwirbel… Trick 17 ist: Einfach die GitHub-Style Checkboxen für Tasklisten nutzten. Das sieht so aus im Rohformat: - [ ] Aufgabe 1 - [x] Aufgabe 2 - [x] Aufgabe 3 - [ ] Aufhabe 4 Aufgabe 2 und 3 sind quasi erledigt und der Rest noch nicht. Sven exportiert das ganze als Rich Text mit Marked 2 und erntet staunende Blicke. Im Kontext sieht das ganze so aus: Link zum Bild: Mettwurst Minutes Sven’s Marked Template: DOWNLOAD Alternative für nvALT: bawigga/nvalt-prime Marked, den “Markdown Viewer auf Steroiden” haben wir auch schon des öfteren erwähnt. Bei Notizen eignet er sich nicht nur zur Betrachtung (inkl. Ein- und Ausklappen einzelner Sektionen), sondern auch zum nachhaltigen Beeindrucken von Kollegen und Kunden im Bezug auf “Meeting Minutes”. Zum einen werden viel zu selten welche gemacht, zum anderen sehen sie dann meist aus wir Kraut und Rüben. Sven nutzt nvALT zum Erfassen von Meeting Minutes und verwendet dabei die GitHub-style Checkboxen, die nvALT und Marked 2 von Haus aus unterstützt werden, um Aufgaben herauszustellen. Dank einer eignen, kleinen CSS Datei in Marked 2 erstellt er dann eine ansehnliche und “professionelle” Version von der dann das RTF kopiert (⌥⇧⌘C) und als Email versendet wird. Hinterlässt immer Eindruck! nvALT unterstützt ja auch Tags. Patrick nutzt aber die nativen Tags von nvALT nicht. Die nehmen ihm erstes zu viel Platz weg (da so unter dem Dateinamen noch eine Zeile rutscht) und zweitens sind die, wie Andreas so schön punktgenau einwirft… zu kompliziert einzubinden. Patrick schreibt einfach in der ersten Zeilen tags: ubercast todo. Das ist mit nvALT immer noch schnell auffindbar und wird in einer Markdown Preview ignoriert, da es durchgeht als YAML Front-Matter (LMGTFY). Sven taggt kaum, aber wenn, dann nutzt er die nvALT-Option. Wobei er selbst anmerkt, dass er sich in der App die Tags auch sparen könnte. Wo hingegen er konsqeunt alles durchtaggt wie der wilde Förster aus Ungerbach, dass ist Evernote. Hier wiederum macht er aber keine Notizen, sondern lagert nur langfristig aufzuhebende Referenzen (z.B. Rezepte). ACHTUNG: Falls ein Hörer wirklich in Evernote ablegt, dann melden, sagen wie, was, wo und den Seltenheitswert bestätigen lassen von uns. An diesem Punkt in der Show fragt Patrick, wie Sven nvALT nutzt, im horizontalen oder vertikalen Modus. Für das V wie vertikal bekommt er ein High Five, aber beim Blick auf die Show Notes stellt sich raus, das dies eine Falschaussage war. SAY WHAAAT? Das High Five wird Sven F. hiermit umgehend offiziell entzogen. Sven… so sieht das vertikale Layout aus: Link zum Bild: Sehr vertikal, mein Lieber. Bei Patrick erstreckt sich das nvALT Fenster über die komplette Bildschirmhöhe und ist meist ganz rechts zu finden. Er zieht Sven auch noch einen weiteren Nerdpunkt ab, da dieser keine Monotype Schrift nutzt. MindNode ist ja nach wie vor Andreas sein Ding. Er schreibt sich auch zu seinen Meetingnotizen immer das Datum und die Uhrzeit dazu. Sven will wissen, wie er die Datei dann wiederfindet, doch für Andreas ist MindNode nur die Zwischenstation. Diejenigen Aufgaben welche sich herauskristallisiert haben, übertragt Andreas in seinen Task-Manager und die Mindmap kommt ins Archiv. MindNode MindNode iOS MindNode Mac Sven ist da eher kurios, denn er exportiert sich seine MindNotes als PDF und haut die in Evernote. Dort ist ja dann alles auch dank Auto-OCR auffindbar. Wenn er noch ein Bienchen dazuverdienen will, dann kommt die MindMap als Zip noch mit in die Notiz. Evernote ist bei Patrick mittlerweile nur noch der Ort an dem “seltene Gäste” landen, also Sachen die er nur ganz selten aufmacht und die unwichtig sind. Zum Beispiel sowas wie geplante Anschaffungen für den Haushalt. Bei dem vielen Gerede um Evernote stellt sich raus, dass keiner die App nutzt um Notizen zu erstellen. Patrick fällt da spontan Metanota ein, welches als Client für Simplenote und Evernote auf dem Mac funktioniert und ein wenig nvALT-Charme versprüht. Für’s Protokoll: Andreas ist kein Evernotenutzer, geschweige denn Evernotefreund. Wenn es denn mal an die Endablage geht, also den Ort des Archivierens, so hält Andreas das tatsächlich und unglaublicherweise in DayOne fest. Die Piloten müssen da natürlich nachbohren, da die App hat ja bei ganz regulären Kunden den Ruf einer guten Tagebuch-App genießt. Andreas erklärt, dass dort die Notizen landen, welche schon mehrere Revisionen hinter sich haben und als solides Gedankengut von seiner Murmel gewertet werden. Eine Notiz, die ein solch durchdachtes Machwerk darstellt kann also schon einen Tagebucheintrag wert ist. Das wird abgesegnet und wir können weiterfliegen. So um alles unter einem Hut zu haben und möglichst wenig Apps am Start zu haben, wird ja bei Sven Write genutzt. War ja schließlich mal sein Pick und ist auf iOS und dem Mac vorhanden. Bei Andreas hat der Pick sozusagen Früchte getragen und Write schlägt Wurzel in seinem Dock und auf dem iOS Homescreen. Derjenige der schwankt, ob er Write oder Ulysses wirklich braucht ist Patrick. Er hat zwar rein proforma Ordner angelegt für Notizen, Todos, Listen und sein Wiki, aber LaunchBar tut den Trick auch und öffnet seine Textdateien in den Ordnern ebenfalls zügig. Auf iOS bevorzugt er 1Writer, welches er so eingestellt hat, dass automatisch die Markdown Preview aufgeht. Hier noch einmal ein Beispiel zu einer typischen Markdown Liste im GitHub Task-Style: - [ ] [The Big Lebwoski](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118715/) - [ ] [Gentleman Broncos](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1161418/) - [x] [Doctor Who (1963–1989)](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056751/) - [x] [Star Wars: Episode VII](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2488496/) In FoldingText auf dem Mac sieht das so (sauber) aus: Link zum Bild: FoldingText Watchlist … und in 1Writer, dass ebenfalls GitHub style tasks unterstützt sieht die Listenansicht ebenfalls schick aus und kann auch zum abhaken genutzt werden: Link zum Bild: 1Writer Watchlist Write hin oder her. Sven ist nicht so recht zufrieden, dass die vielen Schnittstellen mit Box, Dropbox und Co. nicht so 1:1 auf iOS widergespiegelt werden. Deshalb ist er nun wieder komplett zurück bei nvALT. Für iOS hat er keinen wirklichen Favoriten und räumt zeitgleich ein, dass er dort auch “nicht wirklich viel Notizen anlegt”. Andreas ist auf iOS auch sparsam unterwegs und erstellt wenig Notizen dort – wenn dann nutzt er aber Drafts. Wo er ebenfalls fleißig Notizen macht, ist im OmniFocus Notiz-Feld. OmniFocus ist sein Scratchpad. In der App kann er dann auch gerade noch die Punkte eintragen, welche zum vervollständigen der Notiz nötig sind. So kann aus seiner Notiz evtl. auch einmal ‘ne Email werden oder weitere Tasks entstehen aus dem Nichts. Danach kann er immer noch festlegen, ob diese Notiz dann z.B. ein Zuhause als Blogartikel in Write findet, als DayOne-Eintrag oder als Email oder als …. OmniFocus OmniFocus iPhone OmniFocus iPad OmniFocus Mac Attachments Drafts ist auch Sven sein Ding. Was Andreas gerade für OmniFocus geschildert hat, findet er an Drafts so toll. Eine App, die wie Drafts auf iOS Notizen aufnimmt und einem dann erlaubt diese weiterzusenden an OmniFocus, Trello und Co. wäre sein Traum für den Mac. Das fehlt für ihn irgendwie… auch wenn das jetzt schon geht mit Alfred, LaunchBar und Keyboard Maestro. Kurz, der Fechner hätte halt lieber eine App mit Action Directory. Tipp: Gehe mal auf www.eierlegendewollmilchsauapp.de. Patrick merkt an, dass er so eine App auch doll-doll-doll finden würde. Allerdings muss diese dann ihre Actions ähnlich wie .Choose, sein Pick von letzter Woche, oder SublimeText die Actions bereitstellen. Kurz: Einfach aufrufbar und durchsuchbar sein per Tastaturkürzel (siehe ↓). Link zum Bild: Suchleisten in choose und SublimeText Drafts findet Patrick natürlich auch schnieke, aber zum Suchen und Editieren auf iOS nutzt er Editorial, weil man dort ähnlich wie bei Write, Ulysses, 1Write, etc. Ordner aufrufen kann und spezifizierte Suchanfragen starten kann. Link zum Bild: Editorial Ordner Bookmark Link: Editorial Workflow — Bookmarks Folder Zurück zum Entwickler der Herzen. Fast fühlt es sich so an, als wenn der große Brett Terpstra iOS Editor Vergleich etwas Staub gefangen hat, trotzdem bleibt er ein guter Anlaufpunkt für alle, die den richtigen Editor für ihr iPhone oder iPad noch nicht gefunden haben. Falls also bei euch nix dabei ist, schaut mal auf der Webseite von Brett vorbei. Nachdem Tobias Günther von Fournova uns ja in Flug #UC009 die Stuttgarter App Kards.io in gepickenter Form unter die Nase gerieben hat, fragt Patrick nun in die Runde, ob die Herren Co-Piloten denn auch bestrebt sind möglichst kurze Notizen zu machen? Bei Kards ist diese Herangehensweise explizit empfohlen. Die App ist darauf ausgelegt kleine Notizen - das kann auch mal nur eine URL oder eine Zeile sein - aufzunehmen bzw. aufzufinden. Im übrigen eine Methode, die auch von vielen nvALT Nutzern propagiert wird. Patrick selbst hat mit der Adaption von Kards, sowie mit ausschließlichen Einzeiler-Notizen so ein wenig seine Probleme. Er schreibt gerne auch mal mehr und was Kards angeht, da verzichtet er ungern auf die konstante Hochzeit welche Dropbox mit den iOS Texteditoren Tagein-Tagaus feiert. Kards für den Mac ist noch in der Beta und ein iOS-Client ist vorerst nicht in Sicht. Andreas benutzt Kards häufiger. In der Tat ist das Konzept auch so spannend, dass jeder Pilot es uneingeschränkt dem geneigten Hörer (oder Leser in diesem Fall) ans Herz legt. Also, Webseite aufrufen, Beta-Einladung anfordern, selbst ein Bild machen. Last but not least… Notability ist auch noch was, was beim Herr Zeitler unter den digitalen Stift kommt: Notability Webseite Notability iOS Notability Mac Web-Empfehlungen Simplenote ist immer noch eine der besten Apps was Notizen angeht. Hinzu kommt der schnellste Sync weltweit und die Möglichkeit eine Datei kollaborierend zu teilen oder die Vorschau des Markdown Files öffentlich zugänglich zu machen. StackEdit – In-browser markdown editor ist auch noch eine nette Geschichte für Browserfetischisten. Man kann hier Dropbox, GoogleDrive & Co. verlinken. Ganz am Rande: Der Author nimmt auch Spenden entgegen. Alternativen zu StackEdit sind für Dropbox-Nutzer definitiv vorhanden, insbesondere wer bereit ist ein paar Euros zu zahlen hat mit TextDrop einen soliden Editor zur Hand. Ist das nix für euch, blättern einfach mal in dieser Liste mit 10 kostenlosen Online Markdown Editoren. Unsere Picks Patrick: Der vermessene Mensch (von SWR.de) Andreas: Markdown Keyboard (4,49 €) Sven: Crossy Road (0 €) In Spenderlaune? Wir haben Flattr und PayPal am Start und würden uns freuen.
