They say releasing something before it's ready is great motivation to keep going. As I've been using this without changes for a few weeks it's time. If you know about Hoshin Kanri / LVT (or hate OKRs) go to humblestrategy.app and let me know what you think. If not stay tuned for the beta release!

Friends have been suggesting I use NotebookLM for a while, today I dived in. Initially things went well, it's really helping me synthesise my ideas. When I prompted it to interview me about next steps things took a took a turn for the worse. I was shocked to see it use my own words against me!

So I finally signed up for Canva today and gave it a whirl. Controversial opinion, it's just OpenDoc built on web technologies 😀
