    Free PDFs containing oral histories from the men who built the Barbican, the M1, Sizewell A, the South Bank and Stevenage.

    Topographic maps of (only) London’s rivers or London’s hills. Nice idea, although monochrome relief seems rather dull after seeing Stamen’s terrain maps. And the labels seem rather OTT.

    @hamstand Unfortunately I am unable to enter this discussion - agreeing or arguing - via Twitter, because it is a complex discussion.

    @alruii I just missed you there by 15 mins or so, judging by 4sq. Very tasty.

    @barrmatt Hmm, seems OK to me. Odd. @smagdali’s Mail plugin might help you though: bit.ly/NKZVww

    @smagdali Weird. Select an event, cmd-E to edit, change title, cmd-W… nothing :(

    @smagdali Appears to do nothing…

    Tiny Mountain Lion annoyance: How do I commit edits in a Calendar event with one key press? Escape used to work, now it reverts changes.
