Give a listen to this podcast for our take on it. Kimba delights us with insights into color theory and how it affects how we feel about stuff.

Show Notes

Hemingway

Hemingway also does grammar and spellchecking, much like Grammarly (see Podcast #017)

Besides having a web browser-based version, Grammarly also comes in a desktop app for Windows or Mac

How’s it different from Grammarly?

  • No internet needed
  • No web browser integration
  • Better price

You can publish directly to WordPress or Medium

Other web formats: publish as HTML or a Markdown document

Export to MS Word, as a text file, or as a PDF

Pro-tip: If you’re an editor/collaborator on a project, you can as a PDF with all the Hemingway highlighting intact, showing what areas should be reworked.

Price

$19.99 (that’s it! You’re buying the desktop app. No subscription needed)

Color Theory

18121768_1344225328947316_744577129406673208_oA study in color helps us to understand the story we are trying to tell with our websites, logos or landing pages. Why does one color of a button create more clicks than another? Why do 54% of flags contain the color blue? What color is made from toxic metals? What two flags contain the color purple? Why Dominica and Nicaragua of course!
