My Favourite Blog, Currently

My favourite blog currently is Robin Sloan’s lab newsletter. Yeah, technically, it’s a newsletter, but it also has an RSS feed, and what’s the difference anyway?

Robin is both an excellent writer and tech-savvy. He only posts roughly twice a month. His posts are full of interesting thoughts and links that haven’t been published in other blogs before. The last instalment features an opinion on modern web design, a new app for following websites, a proposal to extend RSS, thoughts on the dreaded newsletter-signup popups that are everywhere now, and obligatory words on the hottest of contemporary trends: AI.

I’m always looking forward to the day when Robin posts. On those days, my to-read queue is longer than on most other days.
