    @randomknits That. is. adorable.

    @glasnt @lucykbain @pyko Ooh, I only got the R400. I now have clicker envy. 🙂

    “Man Buns Of Disneyland” Instagram Is Too Enchanting For Words http://t.co/Znv6G9n5vF – This is, uh, relevant to some people’s interests.

    RT @rachelkcross: It brings me so much happiness that #CanvaforWork uses Pied Piper as their sample company. https://t.co/S7uYCopv07 @canva…

    I actually thought, “Hmm. It’s probably not a good idea to modify my WP theme directly.” Yet I did. And now there’s an update. FML.

    So now I get to set up a child theme properly. https://t.co/5RSXci5LHf

    @msmichellegar @lucykbain I would absolutely attend #nodegirls!

    Hackathon Poster

    This past Thursday and Friday, Canva held its first ever Hackathon. At first I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to do for it. (I work with some really brilliant engineers, and my coding skills aren’t great.) But the sign-up sheet came out and it was clear that non-coding projects were encouraged. Then the organiser Chris Doble (jokingly?) suggested that “someone” could create cushions with commas on them. A-HA!

    (The Three Commas thing is a running joke from the show Silicon Valley. As a start-up, we quote that show a lot. We even threw in some references as an Easter Egg in our Canva for Work videos.)

    So I knew immediately what I would do: I’d sew up a cushion with the Canva logo and three commas, and then I’d use my LilyPad Arduino to make the commas light up. The end result turned out pretty spectacular, if I do say so myself.
