Blogging

Manu recently added an RSS feed of new sites to Blogroll. I popped it into Feedbin to discover new blogs. I explored a few and was delighted at the diversity of sites these bloggers have. If there is an opposite of scrolling an algorithmic feed it is this. Let’s bring surfing the web back. 🏄

It was eight years ago today that I started using micro.blog. Seems wild that it has been that long. It has grown into a really great blogging platform. I’m looking forward to the next eight years. Congrats @manton!

“Blogging is small-p political again, today. It’s come back round. It’s a statement to put your words in a place where they are not subject to someone else’s algorithm telling you what success looks like; when you blog, your words are not a vote for the values of someone else’s platform.” — Matt Webb, Interview for People and Blogs, as quoted by Simon Willison.
