Feeds on the web are useful for keeping up with posts to a blog, especially in lieu of checking each site you want to read on at least a semi-regular basis. It’s like subscribing or following…
What a feeds page should look like – it should instruct people who don’t know what feeds are and give recommendations of rss readers.
Colin Walker (colinwalker.blog)[we need more] genuine quality of interactions, real connections, creating a "more validating human experience" as James puts it. This means, however, that we have to pick our targets. Relationships don't scale - at least not the type we need to be building.

We should support projects that directly benefit other people, not because of the indirect benefits to ourselves, but because of the direct benefits to them. That’s what living together in community requires of us.
@vasta shared this quote and I agree that it’s a wonderful sentiment and that it’s worth sharing.
Thank you for posting this. I’ve always been a bit stumped when someone says the whole “what does privacy matter if I’m doing nothing wrong?” argument.

“We’re all the protagonists in our own narratives,” Bridget Kromhout (@bridgetkromhout) agreed.
Consider that everyone in your audience is the hero of their own stories and when you take the stage to speak at a conference …you need to realize that you “have a walk-on part in their[ story].”
Think about that as you try to move your audience or move them to action. You happen to be the character they are encountering in the current scene.
Bridget reminds us that, “Any actions they take, after listening to me, will be what move[s] their story forward.”
You must contribute to their story or you[‘re] a scene that can be cut in post.
I don’t think this just applies for conference speaking…
This is about human to human engagement, not just typing ‘like’ in every comment box. Annotate, dialogue, amplify, and interact.
I feel I need to get better at this.
I’d actually forgotten that I’d placed an order for this until it arrived at my office this afternoon. I thought I’d managed to be good for once, oops 🖋️💸😛
Ugh, talk about being a bully. 😑
I actually prefer websites that still list Hong Kong as a separate entity.
People who’ve watched the recent Australian Open might have noticed something similar. Where all other athletes have their national flag next to their names on tv, Taiwan athletes don’t have that.
