Apparent Software just released a LaunchBar action for Trickster (along with a Trickster update) that allows for perfect integration of Trickster’s file tracking and filtering capabilities with my favorite launcher app.

It’s been another slow week for posting, for which I apologize. I do have something cool, though: A customizable template for a modern resume from Vandelay Design.

I’m a fan of Apple hardware. Apple does an immaculate job of creating physical objects that are aesthetically stunning and a pleasure to use. For the most part, no competitor comes close; the rest of the industry can only copy.

I publish a lot of software projects, and as a result I deal with a lot of customer support. I pride myself on providing support at a level that users and customers are excited about.

I make a concerted effort to not curse online. I’ve broken that rule more often in recent years, but never cursing online for 20 years served me well. Especially these days on Facebook, where my family (and friends who don’t know me as well but actually see me face to face) frequent, it tends to be bad form. (Rory Vaden discusses this in Take the Stairs, and he and I dive in a bit on Systematic 126).

Creatable is running a “Mac Pick A Bundle” promo right now where you can pick any 10 apps out of a list of 30 and pay $39. The app selection has some true gems (i.e. “things I would buy at full price”). You can see the full selection at the promo page.

I’ve updated the Similarity bookmarklet that I posted yesterday. If you missed it, it’s a bookmarklet for desktop browsers that lets you quickly gather links in “Top X resources for…” type posts. It works on Product Hunt collections, “related posts” boxes, etc. By determining common characteristics of links, it does a pretty good job of only selecting links of the same type as you clicked.

How many times have you visited a post with a list of resources, e.g. “15 resources for free stock photos,” and wished you could just grab them all at once? I don’t know about you, but it happens to me frequently.
