> P.P.P.P.S. Ha, I’ve thought of one more thing: I’ve turned comments on for this post! kottke.org used to allow comments on every post, but it’s been almost 8 years since the last time they were on.

The most telling point of the post was at the very end. Gosh we were so young and naive. Just setup a website to accept comments from all over the world. How exciting! Who knows who might visit! And we'll learn about how people live in other parts of the world and all get together and sing kumbaya. Today, user generated content is a the golden goose that also shits everywhere and honks at everyone that comes through the door unless you police it tirelessly.

Hey, this is so nice. I used to be a regular on your website. I fondly remember a time when you included my website in one of your article (blog post) and I had that traffic spike. I mean, my simple personal website being linked from the likes of Kottke, 9rules, Adobe, etc were a big-big thing for me. :-)

Thank you for keeping the site alive.

LOL! I think I bought my car (used), and (I at-least want to believe) the Nikon D40x with TexasHoldem Ads. ;-)

These blogs (kottke.org , memex 1.1) offer daily-ish roundups of links and articles they find interesting, with a short (50-100 words) intro as to why the reader may also be interested. I don't like using email newsletters (my inbox is flooded enough), and long lists of urls is off-putting. Are there any other blogs that do something similar?
