The Joy Of the Build

My experience creating a Pebble watchface, and the joy of coding. — Last month, I wrote an article about switching from Fitbit to a Pebble Time Round. The verdict? I love it. The round design, timeline, and text reply sold me: proving I didn’t need an Apple Watch to do more than a watch. (I’m not a fanboy, I swear). Plus, I…

Why do people love post-apocalyptic stories so much?

It’s a sequel of sorts to Cloverfield, the 2008 movie that started off the new wave of found footage movies (Seriously — 7 Paranormal Activities later and they’re still not done yet).
