Paper
- a blank slate of paper devoid of settings panels, menus, and adjustable line widths.
- team behind it had an interesting history: a handful of them spent several years at Microsoft, with a good chunk of that time focused on the Courier
- Fountain pen is only tool at startup
- Free app but £6 for 4 tools - Write (ballpoint), Sketch (pencil), Outline (marker), and Color (watercolor paintbrush)
- Simplicity and clear toolbar free UI is really nice. Great for sketching, but here’s the funny. A stylus really helps.
- Undo is really nice - hold two fingers on iPad and rotate anti clockwise - step through additions removing one at a time
- Share - twitter, facebook, tumblr and e-mail
Wind Map
- Lovely visualisation of current wind flows in the US
- Team hope to expand ot other countries if they can find the data feeds they need
