There are true gems hidden among the countless personal blogs scattered across the Internet. I wish there were a curated library with only great articles on a wide variety of topics—a kind of search engine stripped of all the clutter: no SEO gimmicks, no ads, just quality content.

I feel this with blogging. In case anyone needed to hear this—you can just write and publish on your blog because you want to. No metrics. No clout. This has always been my guiding principle with my blog (Pawlean.com) which is why 357 posts later, I’m still here. Even if NOBODY reads 😁

I’ve been seeing many people creating a “blogroll” page sharing their own favorite blogs and I think that’s the best I’ve seen so far in that spirit Would be nice if those were interconnected (webmention-like)

That’s a great weekend project I guess 😅 I tend to think of it as a search engine on topics/collections, with an upvote system I feel like a product like MyMind with a social aspect could easily bring it to life, but it seems they’re focused on the personal-only aspect of it, which is fine.

How do you like it so far? I know I rely a lot on RSS feeds to not miss out on new articles from people who inspire me, but that’s the discovery part that is tricky sometimes
