Allyson Kazmucha, iMore


> Lister 2 for iPhone lets you create shopping and grocery lists not only easily, but in a way that makes sorting them and finding what you're looking for simple. With support for Dropbox syncing, sharing, password protection, and more, it's a nice option if you want more control over your lists than what the native Reminders app gives you.

*** Reconstructing A Lost Time Of Love And Literary Ambitions ***

David Haglund, New York Times


> Some readers, like this one, may even wonder at first why Mr. Crain is describing so minutely the colors in a woman’s hair, a plastic bag of milk purchased at a still basically socialist grocery store, the wall panels at the city’s central subway station. But before long the purpose of such pointillism becomes clear: “Necessary Errors” aims to vividly and carefully reconstruct a lost time.




*** Be A User, Not A Consumer: How Capitalism Has Changed Our Language ***
<http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/aug/11/capitalism-language-raymond-williams>
Owen Hatherley, The Guardian


> What has happened over those 200 years was the rise to dominance of capitalism, which obviously changed, and changes, our language and thinking. The researchers discovered a more algorithmic and superficial version of something that the Welsh socialist writer Raymond Williams had already tried to uncover – the way that English had become a class language, where loaded words (and, as he often pointed out, pronunciations) were accepted as "standard".
