PlotLines is a terrific site: “The classics, mapped – every journey in the book, drawn on a hand-tinted period map, with the real 1890s Ordnance Survey wherever the story walks in Britain.” For anyone who, like me, reads novels with maps and atlas at hand, trying to trace the characters’ travels, it’s a godsend, and...
While growing Moonlight's developer community, I built a smart newsletter to create a personalized digest for each member. When I later looked at our analytics, I realized that the newsletter had ten times as many weekly active users as our website. I thought of the company as a web application, but for our...
My most recent typewriter interview — a big hit with readers! — is with author and illustrator Mark Haddon, who said it was the most enjoyable interview he’s ever done and bestowed upon me my new title, “Prince of Analogue.”
