This is not yet on iTunes; I presume it will be at some stage? (I'm in the UK.)

Regarding Photoshop trying to be all things to all people: can I get an amen? But I'm surprised none of the participants mentioned that Adobe does sell a product geared towards web/UI designers: Fireworks. It's far, far, far from ideal, but hey, it exists.

Take a look at the RSS feed and this episode is missing. The feed includes #285 and #283 but skips this one. So if you use any podcast client (including iTunes or Downcast on iOS) then you won't see this episode.

Some code got munged when we pushed the story live, and the file didn't get sent to the iTunes Store. I've updated things, and it should be available for download now.

I think for the Instagram maintaining scroll position could default to maintain scroll position within a certain amount of time and then allow a tap to the top to scroll up to the top. I don't use Instagram's app, so I don't know if they have the tap to top feature or not, but I think that could potentially solve the issue.

Anyone knows what's that thing in Gruber's hand? A mitten?

Thanks so much!
