       | niche, a tech niche, but we have to stop visiting medium or other
       | centralized services.

         | Yeah I think there is a rise in personal blogs/websites and
         | we'll be seeing more of it. It's just hard to discover right
         | now.

       | humbling to see such great and dedicated folks on the web.
       | Wonderful project dbrereton, thank you for sharing.

       | Is it just me, or does clicking on one of the links under "Random
       | blogs" send me to a completely different url?

       | I like this and submitted my own personal blog. Out of curiosity,
       | are the blogs curated in any way to prevent the site from being
       | overrun by blogspam?
       | 
       | Some feedback, I think adding pagination to the "all" page would
       | be nice, maybe even an alphabetic index.

         | Awesome thanks for adding it! The blogs are all reviewed before
         | being added so that should prevent spam from ever being an
         | issue.
         | 
         | Definitely need to add pagination there, thanks for the
         | feedback.

       | This is great, but it makes me so nostalgic for the old web.
