My Obsidian Generic Meeting Template
My Obsidian Generic Meeting Template
In many of my posts I share solutions to technical challenges I have come across. In this post there is certainly an element of that, but it is building on some earlier work and is perhaps more about sharing a real view of what I use day to day, as a way of providing a bit of insight or inspiration into how you may be able to employ something similar. Specifically, in this post I am going to share some details of my “general” meeting template in Obsidian. Oh, and that’s “general meeting” template as in a generic template for a general, run of the mill, ad hoc meeting, not a general meeting as in governance (e.g. AGM, EGM).

Appointments in the Menu Bar
I routinely keep my appointments listed in my menu bar when working on my Mac. As someone who does a lot of block scheduling, this is just one more reminder of where I should be as I work through the day. I also use Bartender to thin down the menu bar so truly useful data, like this, can be visi

Review: Ulysses 2.5 for iPad and, now, iPhone – MacStories
Maybe I’m biased because I’m a writer, but when it was announced in 2010, the iPad struck me as a device which could become a great tool for, amongst many things, my craft. A number of good writing apps (and accessories) have appeared in that time, but when I found Ulysses about a year ago,

Review: Airmail, an exceedingly pretty but Gmail-centric alternative to Apple Mail | 9to5Mac
Review: Airmail, an exceedingly pretty but Gmail-centric alternative to Apple Mail | 9to5Mac
9to5Mac readers know a thing or two. When I reviewed Postbox, after explaining that I had lost patience with the flakiness of late of Apple Mail, several of the commentators recommended Airmail, a lightweight email client based on the popular but discontinued Sparrow app. It’s also the only alternative to Apple Mail and (of course) […]

WiFi Explorer — MacSparky
Lately I’ve been spending time troubleshooting the Sparks family WiFi. Specifically, I’ve been trying to tweak the placement of our various Wi-Fi paraphernalia so as to get a better signal in my daughter’s room in a far corner of the house. I needed a good diagnostic tool to give me an idea of how t
