subscribeblogroll
A blogroll is a public act of friendship, which is why removing someone from
it was the gravest violence the 2005 internet knew. These links are offered
with full XFN sincerity
(rel="friend met admired", the works).
daily reads
- daring fireball — john gruber on apple, typography, and being right slowly.
- kottke.org — the liberal arts degree of weblogs. running since 1998 and never once missed.
- a list apart — for people who make websites. where the standards movement keeps its scripture.
- zeldman.com — the orange beanie himself. we are all in his doctype.
- waxy.org — andy baio finds the good internet so you don’t have to.
- 43 folders — merlin mann teaches you to be productive by reading about productivity instead of working. (via the wayback machine, which is fitting.)
tools of the trade
- the w3c validator — the confessional booth. go and be judged.
- firefox — the browser with the fox. tell your IE6 friends; they suffer needlessly.
- del.icio.us — social bookmarking with strategic punctuation. (now a wikipedia article, which is how all good things end.)
- flickr — photos with tags. loose ts, square crops, everyone’s cat.
- technorati — the blogosphere’s scoreboard. my rank is 1,482,997 and climbing.
transmissions from the future
- my github — where the source code lives. like sourceforge, but it sparks joy.
- my linkedin — the professional profile. friendster for people with mortgages.
- claude.ai — a computer you can talk to, and it talks back, helpfully. see the essays for how deep this goes.
