Pinboard is one of those pieces of software that has "just worked" since I first signed on. It's been a surprisingly useful part of my daily life, and the lack of bullshit when using it has been awesome. Also: Maciej is an incredible writer. If you haven't read his blog (http://idlewords.com/) or his Twitter account (https://twitter.com/baconmeteor) you really should.

Send Idle Words to Antarctica

"I propose to visit Antarctica in February, 2016 and write a series of at least seven blog posts about what I see and learn. In a break with past practice, I will publish the entire series within four months of completing the trip.

The trip I have in mind is a 36-day organized sea cruise on a Russian icebreaker to the Ross Ice Shelf and Bay of Whales, with stops along the way at Australian and American bases (including McMurdo sound) and numerous subantarctic islands."
