I hate this. I too do a lot of off-line, never connected to the Internet devices and I don't want the god Google telling my users they're "not secure". My users know they're on a self contained network.

Wow. I use Etherpad every day. Really enjoy Colbert. Colbert is really innovative in his use of tech. He uses Adobe to make the cartoon Trump and gives regular updates to Adobe to improve the product(the name escapes me).

I didn't consciously realized until you mentioned it but I use BBEdit as you do Sublime. Each time I come back they're all just where I left off. Used it for that for years.

iOS GoodNotes for years. Now I've got an iPad Pro with Apple Pencil and it is pretty wonderful. Of course not perfect—no OCR or searchable text but sure is a nice thing to use everyday.

Looks great. I learned some years ago that mosquitoes can't fly in more than 2.5mph wind so I just put a box fan outside on low and it works!

Having done this many times myself I can tell you to check in-advance, what tech they have and then asked what backup they have. If they don't have a backup, think of what you can bring. As for your talk, whatever it is, a narrative sa

As much as I admire piboard.in, the getpocket UI seems to be everywhere; I see it in iOS I see it in Mozilla developer edition. It is so smooth and so amazing I really really like it.
