Out of curiosity: "great reads" sounds kinda like a proper name / title (it's a plural being used as a singular), are these from lists-of-"great reads" / a layout for some datasource that has "great reads", or just a (large!) collection of things you've found over time? Or am I just over-thinking that "s"? Either way, this looks great. Randomly clicking a few entries finds stuff I wish I had found years earlier. Than…

I think it is just a typo.

Nice graph, have you considered making it a directed graph, and also assigning more explicit semantic meaning to the edges? So for example, using turtle syntax [1], instead of https://engineering.zalando.com/posts/2022/04/functional-tes... > http://example.com/graph-edge > https://www.testcontainers.org/ > have https://engineering.zalando.com/posts/2022/04/functional-tes... > http://purl.org/dc/terms/subject > https:…

Thank you. Honestly, working with GraphDB and SPARQL inspired me to create this. I did consider if I could create a "real" knowledge graph and even went as far as searching for in-memory graphdb that lives in client browser (maybe one that's built on top of IndexDB. I thought, hey if in-mem RDBMS like H2 exists, is there an in-mem GraphDB available? :D) so that I can query it using SPARQL, but couldn't find anything on it. I wanted to do this without any infrastructure while keeping the bundle sizes low but yes, the way you explained is how it should have actually been done.

This takes me back to the importance of "mining the archive" before you start writing about anything. But I not sure if this does it or not. It is always interesting to me how much knowledge we have, and how much effort people have to put in order to acquire good understanding of something. This is still unsolved problem for me.

> just a (large!) collection of things you've found over time

This one is to the point. So, the collection was exported from my Pocket account. Whenever I find any interesting blogs, I save it there (with tags so that I can find them easily). The oldest entry dates back to 2017 and over time, I have accumulated about 700-ish articles.

Here's the backstory: https://twitter.com/nottherealpac/status/1545803998854205441

Hope this clarifies :)

I think I've got a couple thousand things in Pocket and Pinboard, though probably less organized and filters than yours seems to be... turning that into a graph for sharing makes quite a lot of sense, I like that idea. Relatively low effort too.

Anyway, thanks again! This looks like a lot of good stuff, it's clearly years of effort and I'm very glad you shared.

I recommend implementing this in a 3D WebXR AR/VR experience for immersive navigation or look at your data through Flow Immersive. Seeing your data in free space arround you is a great way to gain insights.
