When two worlds collide. Good to see @charliemchapman on App Masters. iOS indie crew, meets app marketing. Really enjoyed the episode, felt a little like a TV crossover.

I updated the #obsidian Web Clipper for properties in 1.4. It also now tries to be more clever about finding the author and published date of an article.
