28: Build faster

Hello. 


No newsletter yesterday, as TinyLetter was being upgraded. I'm not entirely in love with the new version yet, but I'm sure it's better in all sorts of ways I've just not appreciated yet.


I love it when you reply to these emails with something other than your out of office notifications. I especially love your tips. Here's one from @eevilmidget

"I would really like to see more people use the Hipstamatic Disposable. I like that you can't see what photos you took until the roll is finished - 

but the best bit is being able to share the roll of film with another photographer friend, or friends."

[thanks, @eevilmidget]


So you're ready for next time...

SmallWorks LEGO compatible iPhone case.

Looks like a lot of fun, though I'm not exactly reassured by the reviews. Caveat emptor, etc.
