I love going through people's favorite links, and as someone who frequently gets obsessed with things and then drops them, I think a monthly-ish round up sounds like a great idea! I'd love to include some bloggers/profiles from here as well, I'll most likely wait a month or two to make sure I have a good amount to choose from (with their permission, of course.).

There's this very pretty Nina Simone song playing on the radio, not that I would know the name.

Why create when there is already so much to consume? Here, I'm already finding it... » Continue Reading
I'm not sure why but I'm definitely getting a bigger interest in old school platforms, retro tech, digital minimalism, and decentralizing the web. For example, my profile here!
