An unusual thing happened last week, and I’m trying to process it. I’m hopingwriting about it will help me get some clarity around my thoughts and feelings.

Users, understandably, have quibbles and feature requests about Callsheet. However, one complaint far-and-away stood out as the most common.

Footguns

I tend to feel… strongly. That applies to most aspects in life, including whenI find a company whose product(s) I really enjoy. Those products tend to share common traits; they are often simple on the surface,but have surprising depth to them. They can mold themselves to fit my needs, butonce that mold is set, they get out of my way. But more than anything else, theytend to be reliable. I fell in love with Apple because, back in the mid aughts,their products really did just work.

I don’t recall when, exactly, I started using Dropbox. However, I apparentlyearned a bonus 250 MB of space by completing the “Getting Started” flow backin September of 2009. So, it’s been a minute. At first, Dropbox was a revelation. It was the first time somethingsynchronized with the cloud, and did so reliably. Their client apps weresvelte, optimized, and worked a treat.

Mar 20, 2025 | caseyliss.com | Casey Liss

I was pleasantly surprised — moments before sitting down torecord Clockwise — that Devon Dundee over atMacStories had done a write-up of theaforementioned Callsheet 2025.2. Specifically, Devon spent a lot of timewith the multiple lists of pins headline feature. Outside of the publicity, this write-up was particularly gratifying for me, asDevon absolutely took notice of some of the power-user affordances I included.

Twenty

Jan 16, 2025 | caseyliss.com | Casey Liss

Twenty Thursday, 16 January 2025Ten years ago today, I wrote this post. As many of my posts do, it used many words to say one simple thing:In the end, all I can say is that I’m so deeply, deeply lucky to have found you, Erin. Twenty years ago today, Erin and I decided to become boyfriend and girlfriend. I would tell you that I asked her; she would tell you she asked me. Given myhorrible memory, she’s surely right, but I kinda like that a definitive answer islost to time.
