I recently bought a new Logitech mouse for my fiancée and absolutely loved how it was packaged. Aside from that tiniest bit of sticky tape, all of the packaging was cardboard. And it wasn't the waxed type of cardboard that so many things come in. Everything apart from the mouse itself went straight into recycling.
I've personally been trying to cut back on plastic where I can.
One thing I've been avoiding is plastic wrapped fruit and veg, opting for the loose ones wherever possible.
At some point I want to start logging our garbage and see what we can cut out to reduce the waste. That's definitely on my nerdier side, and thankfully shouldn't be too hard for just the two of us.
Regular movement results in regular movement.
Tumblr CEO David Karp reported to Yahoo’s Simon Khalaf, founder of the analytics platform Flurry (also acquired by Yahoo). In an anecdote from an unnamed former employee, Khalaf walked into one team meeting about Tumblr saying the popular blogging platform was “going to be the new PDF.”
“It didn’t make any sense,” the employee recounted. “We’d walk away scratching our heads.”
I’m with them on this. That makes zero sense.
Yes to this. It bugs me so much that they have the “follow system” option and it’s practically never the default.
It would be such a simple way of giving users a slightly customised experience out of the box.
