LAUNCH!

Have really enjoyed using Bluesky, and had this little idea for an application that I've not seen before.

livingbio.blue lets you set variables in your bio, that can be updated with Zapier, Make, Notion (with webhooks), Google App Scripts, custom code.. whatever you like!

Not posted in a while - it's been a busy few months between businesses with lots of progress made 🚀

Also completed the Techscaler Startup Catalyst Programme which was full of value and made some great connections.

ChatGPT helping me with some sorting logic and gave this response after a successful outcome... I didn't know it made jokes! 😄

Another cool use case idea for livingbio.blue 💡

Some cool things are being automated by our current users already!

There’s lots I would love to do to develop this project further, but in the midst of a big push on a commercial project and don’t have a lot of time at the moment.. soon 🤞

Used the survey feature for the first time in MailerLite recently - really handy way to gather up insights from customers. Don’t know why they don’t push it more in their marketing!

Milestone! Hit 50 users for livingbio.blue 🎉

It’s fun to check the livingbio profile and see the user number grow automatically (using its own service!)

It’s really cool that folks are getting use out of it with some interesting use cases so far.

Shipped a small update for livingbio.blue

🔹 We now gracefully deal with overlength bio update attempts without returning an error.

🔸 Added notification functionality that provides useful info to the user (incorrect placeholder name in the query, no values in the query, overlength, welcome etc)

A scone and a chat with a good dev friend this morning. Great to share what we’re working on and bounce ideas off one another.

Working remotely we don’t always get the chance (that’s why I’m enjoying Bluesky actually).

What do you do to not isolate yourself when working remotely?

All the code it takes to automatically update a {{users}} placeholder in my Bluesky bio.. cool!

(don't worry, the API key pictured is no longer active)

Can also be easily updated by Make / Zapier & you can set as many placeholders as you want. Lots of possibilities 🤓

Anyone having problems with Supabase today?

Just switched to Raycast from Alfred. Never really used Alfred to its full capability - I feel like Raycast provides some really useful efficiencies in an accessible way without requiring me to get into the weeds with custom actions. Loving it so far 👌

Disappointing to find out Webflow is sunsetting User accounts today after I used it to set up a time intensive staff management project earlier this year.

There’s definitely a lesson in there about being over dependent on one company - will be difficult to trust them for new features now 🤦‍♂️
