The DSOBS - The Doon School Old Boys' Society An exclusive application for Doscos, the alumni of The Doon School, Dehradun. Most features are for Old Boys only (Sign In is post a verification and approval by the DSOBS Office). Some features, like the Rose Bowl Publication, Doscos in the News and Footsteps (Social Work by Doscos) are accessible to all. The App allows Old Boys to connect with each other and the community as a whole, message each other privately and in interest based Common Rooms, to receive notifications on DSOBS events, social and business ventures undertaken by Doscos, a jobs and careers section (for Doscos and people Doscos recommend for jobs), and to get a detailed, search enabled view of each others professional and personal profiles. The App maintains the highest levels of encrypted cloud based security. Further measures are takes to ensure that the quality of interaction between Old Boys is of a certain standard of integrity. All private messages and interactions in the common rooms are rated to display the usefulness of a member's messages and comments; and, the total number blocks and black lists accrued by an individual member. Doscos using the app are requested to create an online space of support, acceptance, humor, camaraderie, honor, usefulness and integrity. As Doscos, living up to the ideals set by our founders and our experiences in school, we aim to give back to society at large. To further this endeavor we have the Footsteps section that showcases actions undertaken by Doon School's alums to serve as inspiration for more Doscos to join them in these, and to start new initiatives to serve the common good of our fellow beings. Our school motto as always is 'Knowledge Our Light', and purpose of the DSOBS is to create a community of service into which a boy enters - an 'Aristocracy of Service'.

Weave is a native iPhone and iPad app for Typefully. Write a post or a whole thread, see exactly where it's going, and send it now, add it to your queue, or schedule it, all without opening a browser. WRITE ONCE, POST EVERYWHERE Post to X, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, and LinkedIn at the same time. The To line shows a circle for each network you've connected. Tap one to skip it for this post, or long-press to see the exact handle behind each one. Weave remembers your choice, so if you usually post to one network, it stays that way until you change it. THREADS THAT JUST WORK Posts sit on the page like a thread, joined by a simple line. Press return three times to start the next post. Weave knows which network has the tightest character limit and highlights anything past it as you type, so nothing gets cut off. SCHEDULE IN PLAIN WORDS Tap the clock next to Post. Choose Now, the next open slot in your Typefully queue (with its real time), or type something like "tomorrow 9am" or "next Tuesday at 3pm" and Weave works it out. There's a date picker too, if you'd rather tap. POSTED, KEEP WRITING When you send a post, a small card confirms it went out and gives you a link to it on each network. The page clears right away, so you can start the next one. YOUR QUEUE AT A GLANCE Posts shows one timeline: what's scheduled, open queue slots, drafts, and what you've already posted, with X stats right on each post. Tap to edit, swipe to delete. MORE THAN ONE ACCOUNT If your Typefully account has several profiles, like personal and work, switch between them in one tap. The composer always shows which account and handles a post is going to. SIRI AND SHORTCUTS Say "Write a post in Weave" to start a post by voice, or add posts to your queue and check what's scheduled from Shortcuts without opening the app. COMPLETELY FREE No ads, no in-app purchases, no subscriptions. You'll need a Typefully account and an API key, which you'll find in Typefully under Settings, API. Requires iOS 26 or later. Privacy Policy: https://birchtree.productions/apps/weave/privacy.html
