Riding around Detroit's derelict Packard plant on a homemade dirt-bike

2 Shares

A reader writes, "In late October, we shot some video in Detroit's abandoned Packard plant. The reasons included, to test a motorcycle I built, and also to practice flying our drone. This is not a closed course, and not a professional rider. We were just looking to have some fun. Please enjoy."

Richard Sherman And The Plight Of The Conquering Negro

Last night in the NFC championship, the San Francisco 49ers trailed the Seattle Seahawks by six, 23-17, with 30 seconds left in the game. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick had led the 49ers all the way down to the Seahawks' 18-yard line. He took the snap out of the gun, set his feet, and released a flossy little fade to the corner of the end zone, where receiver Michael Crabtree had his hands out. And then Richard Sherman happened.

The NewsBlur iPhone and iPad app meets iOS 7

6 Comments and 8 Shares

Apple’s latest operating system for iOS is a departure from their old aesthetic. So I’ve decided to give the NewsBlur iOS app a slightly new look. But even more than how the app looks is how the app works. Tons of new features made it into this mega-release.

  • Entire interface interfacer has been redesigned for iOS 7.
  • Gestures galore: mark stories as read/unread, save stories, mark feeds as read, train feeds.
  • Long press a feed or folder to choose a mark as read date: 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 14 days. Works offline, too!
  • Long press a story title to send it to a third-party read later service.
  • New view layout for iPad: move story titles to the bottom in portrait.
  • Significantly improved scrolling speeds on the feed list and story list.
  • You can now unread stories that were read while offline.
  • Faster marking of folders as read.
  • Fixed numerous bugs related to reading stories while offline.

The iPad app also has a new view for extra-wide reading while in portrait orientation.

I hope you enjoy this latest update. And stay tuned for the next update coming soon which will include even more iOS 7 features: Dynamic Text Size and Background Updates. The NewsBlur iOS app is and will always be free.

Unless you are still using iOS 6, then it nags you to upgrade every time you fetch stories. Just don't bother clicking 'Upgrade' because the new app requires iOS 7.

It shouldn't ask you to update if you're on iOS 6.

@sam, agreed it "shouldn't", but yet it continues without a care for my thoughts on what it should or should not do.

Why does it seem the number 2 mobile platform gets the most love?

Maybe because with GrazeRSS, Android already has the best offline Newsblur client? ;-)

Just because more people use android doesn't mean more NewsBlur customers use android.
