Ask HN: What are your favourite micro blogs?
I don't have to time to read all those detailed blog posts about interesting topics. I feel that many blogs bloat their overly-lengthy posts with a soup of keywords to improve SEO while making them annoying to read.
I'm looking for good micro blogs that post short, to the point articles. I like when they link their sources and further reading material on the topic. And if they provide a feed I can subscribe to, I might even read them.
- plainoldcheese 6y agoi did not know micro blogs that had actual information in them existed. i thought microblogs are like tweet style.
- alexmingoia 6y agoOne of my favorite microblogs is Seth Godin's blog <https://seths.blog/ https://seths.blog/>. One post per day, succinct, original, and often insightful. What I appreciate most about Seth Godin is that it's original, insightful writing. Most microblogging (Twitter) is either trivial and self-absorbed ("I liked this", "I had X for breakfast", etc.), or a link to someone else's content.
