from Willem L. Middelkoop [alt+shift+b] in technology

6 days ago
My mail, WhatsApp and Signal now live in one app I built myself. I called it Contact. It is not a chat app and not an AI app, it sits somewhere in between. When I tried to draw what it is in my notebook, a factory came out. This post explains that drawing, starting with a...

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!
