Birthdays: Intro & Cached Images

Hello! I started this newsletter to share updates on my side projects.

Welcome! (Also feel free to unsubscribe below.)

Current projects in the works:

• Birthdays app — remember friends bdays without Facebook

• Loom — Twitter thread composer

I hope to send out 1-2 emails per week. So you can expect 1-2 emails per month.

Tonight I spent time updating the Birthdays app. On the current version of the app, whenever you click on someone’s face, you’ll see the images flicker because we refetch the images.

I updated the images to cache to the file-system on your device. This both eliminates the flicker and reduces the app’s data usage!

I also added a roadmap on the doc to keep track of feature requests.

If you haven’t gotten set up with Birthdays yet, you can at this doc.

Next Up for Birthdays:

• Android Version

• Improved Design / Logo
