Mem.ai, Moonlander keyboards, a host of new links.

I note this morning that Mem.ai have released a beta version of an iOS app. I'm still not convinced about Mem but I'm pleased that they are iterating and I hope it turns into something I can find a use for. What they are working towards is a version of Jarvis from Iron Man, and that is a wholly worthwhile goal.

This morning, to ring the changes, I boxed up my Code Keyboard and plugged in the Moonlander. I haven't used this for a few months, but I'm pleased that my hands haven't completely forgotten what they are supposed to be doing.

I've also been playing with a new macro lens from Moment, who make incredibly high-quality lenses for smart phones. I already had their gold flare anamorphic lens, which is amazing for video. I've not done much macro photography, but I'm interested to play around and see the world in a new way.
