Interview Preparation
Published:
As part of my preparation for interviewing, I wanted to make sure I had an easy way of taking digital notes. I had previously heard from Jason Snell about how he uses a script combined with Keyboard Maestro to get notes that are timestamped. Jason’s post about his approach can be found on Six Colors and the full script is a GiHub Gist. While I’m doing an interview rather than a podcast, I do want audio that is easy to edit. I also wanted a way to easily find material that is useful to my research. So the note taking needed to allow me to do the following:
- Take a free text note of whatever I liked.
- Have minimal button presses so it was both easy to remember and also easy to repeat.
- Be time stamped relative to the start of the recording, so I could find the point in the track easily.
Audio Test Post

This is a post to see if I can work out how to post an audio file that will render with a nice player. I think i should use Plyr which relies on a bunch of files being brought in from a CDN.
Tools for a PhD
Published:
There are a number of tools I am using in my PhD, on the off chance sharing them is useful to future researchers. I have split up the different tools into the kinds of research activity I am using them for. Generally, I like to use open source tools wherever possible. Avoiding having files locked into a propriatry format is important for ensuring that future practitioners and researchers are able to access materials.
Ethics Documents
Published:
I have successfully received ethics approval for my PhD. To ensure participants can access the Participant Information Sheets easily and for posterity, I thought it would be a good idea to have them available on this site.

Hello World!

This is the first blog post on this site as a proof of concept. As the site gets more complex I am expecting that these posts will become a way of sharing materials from my PhD. I am also hoping that this will offer me a way of reflecting on the process of doing the PhD.
