Ye Olde Blogroll - Because blogs are the soul of the web

You are viewing a humanly curated list fine personal & independent blogs and sites that are updated regularly. No algorithms ever!

Blogroll

Just migrated my entire website to Astro with Cursor AI as my co-pilot. Was it reckless to let AI work on a key digital property? Probably, especially when it actually involved merging three WordPress sites on the domain into one.

Was it worth it? Without a doubt.

Cursor AI delivered 99% of my vision - that last 1% was just me learning that some of my dream features were about as practical as a chocolate teapot.

Turns out even AI knows better than to implement all my ambitious design whims.

On Jack Dorsey’s point that in the age of AI, it’s important to own your identity and content… For me it goes back to trust, and why personal blogs will be more valuable than algorithmic or retweeted posts from strangers. Lean in to the human voice and relationships with readers.

@jenxi and I regularly remind each other to get moving on our work with the famous Nike tagline “Just Do It”.

After chatting with Jarrett Yew more recently, we might need to update it to “Just ChatGPT It”.

Irrespective, the point is to stop dreaming and just get started.
