Work

From yesterday’s junk mail. Why not a more direct message, like “Stuck in a contract? We’ll pay to get you stuck in our contract!”

Red text on white paper reading Stuck in a contract? We'll pay your cancellation fee. Details inside, framed by red bracket marks.

Attract Customers with WiFi Name

A while back we were traveling and I noticed that this coffee shop, Kavarna, didn’t just have its name in its WiFi network as most do. They smartly were telling anyone that could see the WiFi signal to come on in and use the network.

Smart. More places should do this. How about “Free Refills” in your WiFi network name?

iPhone Wi-Fi settings screen showing the network Free WiFi at Kavarna selected and connected, with Wi-Fi and Ask to Join Networks both toggled ON.

It’s When You Wake Up?

Why is it so different to go to sleep at 2am and get up at 6am, versus going to bed at 10pm and getting up at 2am? Both are a miserly 4 hours of sleep, but the later is immensely less desirable.

I’ll be doing the later tonight to head into the office for a product release.
