Anything's a portable speaker if you're brave enough

from ./techtipsy [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
I hate buying things that are single-purpose, which is why I ended up with this setup. Take a speaker, a battery, put them together, and what you now have is a portable speaker. Since I had access to both, I felt no need to buy a separate portable speaker for use in social...

Scale

from Matt Mullenweg [alt+shift+b] in technology

4 months ago
In high school when 5% of your class doesn’t like you it’s like 3-5 people. Running a company of 1,700+ when 5% doesn’t like you, that’s 85 people! That fills a room. 150k followers and 5% don’t like you now you have a small stadium of 7,500 people. It’s still 5%.

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!
