Blog

I like this 2026 project by Ramsey Nasser: "A daily journal. One word, one link a day." I keep a daily journal in Obsidian that I don't write in much, but at the very least I'll always write a little one-line summary each day. It's nice to pull all those summaries together into one big list at the end of the year.

I was wondering what the Christmas season would be like in Japan and after a week here I can tell you that I am so tired of modern American Christmas songs! They’re everywhere!!! I have learned every word to Wrap Me Up by Jimmy Fallon featuring Meghan Trainor (?)! Otherwise a very cute experience

My website is filled with junk secrets and I've collected as many of them as I could find into a list. Care to crack open the wardrobe?

Laura wrote about my long list of likes! You can tell that my list is incomplete because nothing from Laura's blog is on there.

Many many years ago I wrote a bookmarklet that automatically saves, likes, and archives the current page in Instapaper, for times when I wanted to remember something I read that I didn't read in Instapaper. That stopped working at some point but maybe it's worth trying to revive it as an iOS share sheet tool…

Hey I am still talking about Instapaper. Today I fetched my 500 most recent Liked articles from the Instapaper API and put them on a page in the order I liked them. I'll try to remember to keep it updated. There is no commentary or endorsement or anything, it's just the stuff that made me go "huh." Check out a really long webpage!

Kind of interestingly, my 500th most-recent Like was almost exactly five years ago.

In other Instapaper news, Kobo launched their official integration with Instapaper and it is really good. Better than the old Pocket integration was. I've abandoned my crusty PDF-generation workflow and updated the corresponding blog post too.
