Welcome, Unknowns
April 18th, 2008 | Published in Blogging, RSS
OK. I just added a bunch of new feeds to my RSS reader tagged in the category of "unknowns." And I don’t mean "unknowns" in the "not-internet-famous" way, oh no; I mean unknown to me. I literally just found you. You have a blog? Oh! Well, let me check it out.
I hope I don’t offend anyone by calling you an "unknown." I know how bloggers like to be famous, I’m sorry in advance. You’re totally famous. I’m just ignorant and out-of-touch.
Anyway, I’m going to use this folder to debut new feeds until I can figure out what folder they belong in. (Speaking of which, if anyone knows a secret way to rename folders in Google Reader, I will love you forever).
So where did I find my unknowns? Linkriver. I honestly don’t think I’ve been giving Linkriver the attention it deserves. It’s a pretty dang cool site. Want to know more about it? Read Corvida’s review on Read Write Web.
Without further ado, welcome to my RSS, all you new guys:
- ideavine|stylebook (what is up with your description, by the way…go subscribe, you’ll see)
- Ben Casnocha: The Blog - a 19-year-old entrepreneur? This should be interesting.
- Chad Dickerson - tech and rock’n'roll - I would prefer you keep those separate, but OK. Also, I just removed my links from splicing into my feed, but I see you’re a fan. Too much of that isn’t good…so, we’ll see!
- Ross Mayfield - OK, not exactly "unknown" - Ross is the Chairman, Pres, and founder of Socialtext. However, again with the link splicing. Sigh.
- Christopher S. Penn’s Awaken Your Superhero - OK, first of all, killer name. I don’t know what you are all about yet, but I def. want to know about this superhero business.
- Howard Owens - a blog mostly about newspapers online and online journalism - I know very little about journalism, actually, maybe I’ll learn something!
- Joe Lazarus - a tumblr site, which always makes me think "catch-all," so I’m curious what will show up here
- Noah Brier - marketing, media, technology, and randomness - you had me till that last one; I like my randomness in very small doses
- Epeus’ epigone - I’m not sure how you pronounce it, but URLs are people, too, right?
- the8thsign - a Mac guy’s blog - you’re a Mac, I’m a PC…maybe if I subscribe we can learn to get along
- massless.org - I am confused: is this a fashion blog, a tech blog, or a link blog? Is this still updated? I am going to find out.
- HighTouch - no about page, how mysterious!
- theory.isthereason - over 1000 subscribers? oh wow, I think I is reading. I think I is been missing out!
- Sample the Web - Editorial Director at Mahalo; maybe he’ll dish on Jason? (P.S. RSS feed waaaay down at the bottom?)
- Leigh’s Blitherings - a blog about networked ecosystems, culture, technology, and other stuff - I like ecosystems, my major was geography (don’t ask)
Our American Shelf Life - this is where Amanda blogs, whom I quoted in today’s RWW "twitpitch" story; I just read a blog post over there that facebook "pokes" = flirting. Is this something only the kids know? I feel old now. Me and my friends, girl and guy, poke each other. Eww.
