I’ve made a collection of my favorite personal websites not long ago here:

I’m working on https://markway.io/, a Markdown web highlighter.

The core idea is to make it easy to capture page content, highlights and images and everything will be formatted as Markdown and is easily editable in a performant little editor window.

Then from there, I’m working on multiple export services like Clipboard export and popular PKM apps like Obsidian, Roam Research, Capacities etc.

So fun!

I wonder how the wiggle animation is implemented in for the buttons and modal.

I’m half way down The Strength of the Few.

Always looking forward to read the next chapter.

Don‘t you think there could be a world where the link to something human might triumph what an AI can generate.

For example: Music is not only about how good it sounds. But also a lot about who the singer is. Their history. What they stand for and what story is behind a album or song.

With AI, I don’t see that we will ever reach that dimension. Expect maybe when AI becomes sentient?

Exactly!

As mentioned in another comment, I think it's sad if one writes an amazing article but it stays unrecognized or gets little traction simply because the title was a bad choice.

But at the same time, we have lived long enough with clickbait to know it works (unfortunately), and this shouldn't become a place where people are lured into low-quality posts.

I thought it would be nice to immediatly do a write-up.

Otherwise I push it into the future and it never happens.

Happy that I found some time this week.

Yes, I think so too.

At least for this post, I made sure to post it in the afternoon. To have an overall between Eurpean and US time. (I'm based in near Amsterdam)

100%!

Yes, fair point!

I tried to reflect on some lessons from this, because I learned from the experience that small things (e.g. the title) can make large differences.

Which means that often good ideas or nice articles might get unrecognized, because they lack a good "packaging".

Making sure those things are on point helps.

But that should be it.

While working on my website again I've collected some of my favorite personal blogs in a short article.

I'm curious: What are your favorite personal websites and blogs?

This is great too! There are probably some pros in Excel out of sheer necessity because of their work. Thanks for sharing.
