The controlled accident. Sometimes it gets mistaken for "do nothing" or "doing nothing". Because the characters 无为 (wu wei) mean nothing (wu, 无) and doing (wei, 为). So although a literal translation would be doing nothing, it doesn’t mean the same as sitting

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
