Everything is changing to USB C - great! But also, eek. That means it's time for new chargers. Now, I'll grant you, I'm a nerd and I love shopping for new chargers! But trying to find one I want, that charges the devices I want, which can be shipped to me (Austria uses Amazon Germany, and as many residents of Austria are aware, lots of things "Cannot be shipped to Austria" - for reasons unknown) is actually not that fun after 3 hours of trying to figure it all out.

Shelly Brisbin has been hard at work and updated iOS Access for All. It's a book about accessibility on iOS - walking you through using all of the Apple features designed to assist people. Additionally there are reviews of hundreds of accessible iOS apps.

Ryan and I have been tweaking Build Your OmniFocus Workflow, mostly recently we have added a mobi download which means that you can easily read the book on your Kindle! Just send it to your Kindle email address, or connect your Kindle to your computer and copy the .mobi file over.

Episode 14 of Automators is all about journalling - when David suggested the topic for this episode I jumped on it. I subscribed to Day One last year and have been trying to improve my usage of it, this episode forced me to go figure out some automations to make it easier - thankfully since recording I've been journalling more consistently than ever!

When the iPhones were announced last year I had decided before the event that I wasn't upgrading, and for a while after the event I held out - until I found out I could get a real dual sim iPhone XS Max from Hong Kong, which means no restrictions or modifications to iOS, and real dual sim capabilities. When it dropped in price a little I caved and flexed my credit card. (For the curious I found the iPhone on eBay from a UK seller - I picked the seller with the highest ratings and everything went smoothly.)

In episode 13 of Automators we got to interview David Barnard from Contrast - the company behind Launch Center Pro which was just updated this week.

I had the privilege of being interviewed by Daryl Baxter who hosts the Outpost podcast. We over the 11" iPad Pro and how awesome it is - and what possibilities there are with these fancy new USB C iPad Pros!
Listen to the episode.

Today I'm very excited to announce a book: Build Your OmniFocus Workflow. I've been hard at work on this for the last 3 months - but not alone. My fabulous co-author, Ryan Dotson, has been hard at work right along side me (admittedly with a timezone difference) - and we have 150 pages ready for you!

Over on The Sweet Setup we did a roundup of goodies we love - so if you're looking for something to add to your holiday gift list be sure to check it out!

David's been at it again, yet another field guide! This one is all about gift wrapping - and it's free. I love wrapping presents and will be referencing this when I start wrapping next weekend!
