10th Apr 2024
The mild winter of 2023-2024 brought very little snow to Wisconsin. We watched the weather for months, waiting for more snow to fall but it never did. Last year we arrived in Washburn after Memorial Day and there were still patches of snow in the deep shade of the woods. This...

On running

2nd Aug 2026
Never did I imagine myself getting into running, especially as a middle-aged man. It always seemed a bit boring to me. Cycling is what I thought I‘d inevitably venture into, especially because I love watching that sport. But here I am, roped in by a couple of friends, fully...

How to Trigger Flow States with Coffee

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

5th Aug 2017
Most of us use coffee to get through the day. It's a routine that we probably don't think much about. Wake up, pour a cup and go. When the buzz wears off it is time for another cup. But what if we used coffee more intentionally? Could we develop a system where coffee becomes your...

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!
