25th Jul 2023
Technical analysis is a part of finance that studies price moves to guide investment decisions. A lot of investors seem skeptical of the use of past price data, which leads to technical analysis often being perceived as similar to astrology. In this article, I will try to see if...

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!
