I choose a year of Essentialism after a hard fall, solo parenting, juicing, workouts, and learning to focus on what matters.
Matt Gemmell - Raw Materials
I recommend Matt Gemmell's Raw Materials, reflecting on personal essays, shared difficult stories, Markdown, and static publishing.
Obsession x Voice
I revisit Merlin Mann and John Gruber on obsession, voice, credibility, blogging, and why my scattered interests are hard to name.
Decision Fatigue
I think about web decision fatigue, endless online reading, technical rabbit holes, and the difficulty of shutting my curiosity off.
Sunday Reading - April 15th, 2012
I collect Sunday reading links on Instagram, Facebook loneliness, tech news, Tyler Cowen, fashion, gender, and wider culture.
Aligning with My Needs
I apply Marco Arment's product-focus idea to my own blog, looking for less feature creep and more variety in what I write.
On Reading- Gawker, and the Trifecta of Reading
I revisit digital reading through Gawker, Kindle, iPhone, and shifting blog design, asking how flow and discovery are changing.
Pausing to Read - Site Design
I think about Instapaper, clean site design, and how removing distractions can make online reading feel slower and more humane.
