Here’s something new for my Automation obsession:
“Greg Pierce at Agile Tortoise released Drafts 4 yesterday, and it’s a doozy. A new look and many new features, especially for those of us who like programmable…”

Technology. We all use it, we all love it. We all hate it.
Upgrading to Mavericks
I decided that I should upgrade my Mac to OSX 10.9 Mavericks before the next version of the Mac OSX comes out, which might be on Thursday. These things are always a slightly tense moment, but in the end it all worked and here I am, running Mavericks. I hope that everything runs ok. It seems ok so far, but who knows?
Something new in Automation: Drafts 4 brings a new hope to a favorite iOS utility
Here’s something new for my Automation obsession:
“Drafts lives in my dock on both my iPad and iPhone. Any time I start to write anything on my iOS device, I start writing it in Drafts, because I know that I can…”

I’ve been after one of these for ages now, and I’m really taking my time to enjoy this device and have some fun with it.
iPhone 6 update
Well, after spending an entire day out in London my new (arrived on Friday) iPhone 6 has made it through the entire day on a single charge. Something that my iPhone 5 hasn’t done in years. Well, probably at least a year to be fair. It did end up at only 10% of charge by the end of the day, but that was after almost 14 hours without charge. I think that’s quite impressive. For an iPhone anyway.
At Tech Pitch this week
I always enjoy Tech Pitch, but going along last night was especially good. Great pitches with some super quality start ups and meeting some great people too. A thoroughly enjoyable evening out on the whole.
The evolution of the iPhone
So it looks like I’m moving to iOS8 today
My iPhone 6 is due for delivery today. So it looks like I’ll move to iOS8 by default. I’m still resisting moving on my iPad Mini, but for my iPhone I think I have no choice. I’ll be letting you know about how I get on and what works and what doesn’t. In some ways I’ll miss my iPhone 5. It’s done well over the last two years even though it does have a defective battery which needs changing.
The two main things I’m looking forward to are having more space as I’m moving from 32 to 64gb, and having a phone where the battery doesn’t deplete in around 2 hours!
Let’s see how that works out. More later.
