An Invocation for Beginnings. Turning the dial from 0 to 1. Ze Frank Is Back!

/

I believe that is the first time I’ve used an ! on a title. I’m not a fan of the over use of !. But this ! is well earned, cause damn it Ze Frank is back. I must have known, in the back of my mind, that he was coming back today, cause over the weekend I could not stop thinking about his old shows, my favorites like long lost friends. I am surprised at how much I missed his verbosity. 

So, do as the man says, and start something.

Fish: The Best App/Essay/Manifesto I've Seen In Years

Fish: A Tap Essay

Writer Robin Sloan has created one of my new favorites, one of those things that enter your life and fit like they’ve been there forever. 

He has created something truly marvelous that is in essence, well, here is how he describes it: “a short but heartfelt manifesto about the difference between liking something on the internet and loving something on the internet.”

I won’t say much more, no spoilers here, just go download it, it’s free, and take in what he has to say and how he has expressed it. 

I’ve already read it more than once.
