 +=== Tools I will not review II===
 +  * https://helpcenter.woodwing.com/hc/en-us/articles/205501375 - DAM (Digital Assets Management), create versions of a file is a 3 step process, for each file. Not practical for day to day work. It's a DAM, not a DVCS. No possibility to compare two versions. Comparing 2 image files is putting them side by side.

 +
 +=== Thoughts ===
 +  * Have a Font vizualing tool. Play around with fonts?
 +  * Why Dropbox and other sync software suck... Versioning is "linear" and there is no way to .ignore files inside a folder.

 +
 +
 +=== Open design ===
 +From this video: http://opendesign.foundation/articles/designers-can-open-source-session-video/
 +
 +How can designers be more open source:
 +
 +  - Share you process. (failed attempts, inspiration,...)
 +  - Share your source files
 +  - Use code as a design tool
 +  - Collaborate
 +  - Donate (donate unused work)
 +  - Contribute
 +
 +Make "credit" the core reward for contributing.
 +
 +Roadblocks:
 +  * Tooling (invent the tools)
 +  * File formats (open file formats like svg, html/css as design tools)
 +
 +"An interface to Git for graphic designers"
