It’s a go for the Gutenberg editor!
Going Gutenberg is my takeaway theme for 2018. Installed the feature plugin on my site and have started to learn how to program custom blocks!
Thank you to all the #wcsd volunteers that made 2018 a fun and informative event.

Tried out AR.js in iOS 11 and it worked!
Great use of the new WebRTC and Media Capture API’s in mobile Safari.
Used iOS 11’s new full screen recording feature to create a video of me trying the test AR page.

Bought a pair of AirPods on Sunday.
Good battery life, I’ve just been using the out of the box charge for the AirPods and the case that doubles as a portable reserve battery charger.
Let them run down twice and used the case to charge them back to 100%. I’m finding about 30 min of case charge was getting the pods to 100%. The case was at 29% before the last charge.
Paired them with my iPhone, Macbook and even the Apple TV.
Like how you can easily switch the audio on the Macbook to the AirPods from the volume control icon in the toolbar. When you take them out of your ears, the audio switches back to the Internal Speakers.

Trying out a cache solution from wp-rocket.me to create static versions of the pages and posts on this site. If you’re using CloudFlare and the associated WordPress Plug-in, using “Automatic Cache Management” looks like it helps empty the cache after changes. Safari kept showing pages with broken CSS before this change.
