Song Huong Eatery

from Sherman's Food Adventures [alt+shift+b] in life

1st Jun 2026
Many years ago, I would visit Song Huong out on Nanaimo for their Vietnamese fare, in particularly, their Bò 7 Món.  For those who are not familiar, this is seven courses of beef that is usually served during celebrations.  So when they opened a second location near me, I knew I...

Your Communication Leakage Rate

from Adrian Hanft, III: RSS Feed [alt+shift+b] in life

13th Mar 2017
Over 85% of your communication is lost. It is wasted on deaf ears, hidden agendas, wandering minds, good intentions, and the low fidelity of human memory. I made the 85% number up, but it can't be far off. If you think my guess is unreasonable let me try to distort your reality.

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!
