Recently, I have been having a lot of fun putting my thoughts into visual thinking tools: mindmaps, whiteboards and infinite canvas apps (e.g. SimpleMind, Kinopio, Excalidraw/TLDraw Muse 2.0, Apple Freeform). In a way, these tools have brought back the fun of making personal websites or even those silly posters in MS Word that maybe some of you did back in your school days. For the past 15 years or so, "websites" and "blogs" were largely interchangeable, and web design suffered as a result. We are still largely living in a highly templated, single-column, mobile first world. It shouldn't have to be this way. The infinite canvas really helps visualize my thoughts as you can draw connecting lines between related ideas, add images, and not have to worry about some grid system preventing you from putting things next to/on top/below each other.
