For 2026, Pantone has selected PANTONE 11-4201 Cloud Dancer, a soft, airy white. The colour is described as calm, reflective, and quietly uplifting — a reset button in a noisy world. Cloud Dancer suggests simplicity, clarity, and the idea of a fresh creative starting point.

Moving to Mastodon

Welcome to Mastadon

Been trying out the social network (or rather network of social networks) Mastodon this weekend. Primarily this has been to replace Twitter. But since I’ve never been an avid tweeter (or tw*t, as some might say), that’s really an ulterior motive. What I’ve been after for a while is an Instagram and Facebook alternative. This could be it.
