The Sweet Setup turns one⇢
Shawn Blanc:
Just one long year ago today we launched The Sweet Setup. Our aim was to be the place you go when you (or your friends) want the best app for a certain category. That is still our aim.
Over the past year, we’ve done our best to write some of [the best app reviews you can find, share interesting and fun interviews with folks about the computer gear they use, and write helpful tips to help you get the most out of the apps you use.

Introducing Relay FM⇢
As I type this, it’s sometime between 1 and 2 in the morning on Saturday, August 9. My kids and wife are in bed. It’s raining. I’m on the couch, with my iPad, thinking about the last several weeks, months and years of doing whatever it is I do on the Internet.
This fall, 512 Pixels will be six years old. A few years into it, I got invited to be on The Bro Show, an interview show with two guys from England who wanted to talk to me about tech. We hit it off, and over the last four years, Myke and I have created hundreds of hours of audio content for listeners to enjoy.
Sponsorship opportunities⇢
The best way to advertise on 512 Pixels is via the RSS feed. Exclusive for one week, sponsored posts come with a whole pile of benefits. Lots of openings this summer.

Publishing in a Post-FeedBurner World
Ok, fine. I know FeedBurner isn’t dead. But I can’t imagine it will last forever, and as a general rule I don’t like having business-critical things running on Google’s services.
When I moved away from Feedburner, I ended up replacing it with FeedPress, a paid service that gives publishers lots of tools to deal with their RSS feed, including statistics, custom host names, newsletters, and social media posting.
The last was especially important to me.
My BitQuill Q&A⇢
Devir Kahan was kind enough to include me as part of his on-going interview series with other online writers. If you want to know my favorite movie or what super power I wish I had, check it out.
You Know That Weird Thing When Writers Link to Interviews of Themselves? Yeah, I’m Doing That Today⇢
If this doesn’t get Ungeniused back up and running, I give up.

Be sure to check out Issue 2 of The Loop Magazine, for articles from Joe King, Matt Gemmell, Matthew Panzarino, Peter Cohen, Rene Ritchie and yours truly. It’s out today at the link above.
2013 T-Shirts Are Here!⇢
The original Macintosh used 400 KB floppy disks. In that limited space, countless nerds got their start. This shirt celebrates a time when software — like so many things — was simpler and smaller.
Instead of having shirts printed locally and spending hours packing and mailing shirts, I’m using Teespring this year. It is like Kickstarter for t-shirts, sorta. You can pre-order now by visiting this fancy link between now and Monday, May 13. Estimated delivery is by May 27, so you’ll have plenty of time to gets yours broken in before WWDC.
