A Look at Portland Car2Go Data

from Alex Meub [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
Recently I became a Car2Go member and I can’t say enough good things about the service. It’s fast, cheap and ridiculously convenient; it’s a pretty incredible transportation option. Part of what makes it so great are the apps that give you up-to-date car location and availability...

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!
