Nice logo I would suggest making a favicon so it follows when people make bookmarks etc.. Current favicon.ico is zero bytes..

  Ah yes, that is definitely on my todo list. And thanks! I'd love for a professional to re-work the logo but it's ok for now, I suppose.

  I added the favicon. :) thanks.

Very useful resource. Thanks for sharing.

  Glad you like it! And please, definitely let me know if you want to see anything new added or something changed. I don't believe my vision is quite matching up with what people want and I'd like to change that.

This is the first blog post I've ever made for the site. I wanted to summarize what has transpired over the first month. I will use this mainly for feature announcements and hopefully milestones of note. :) Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

First time I've seen the site, and it looks very useful, thanks! What similar sites for other languages or tools do you admire or take inspiration from?

  Hmmm, interesting. I'm a very verbal learning, so for me, I often need to watch tutorial videos. The first videos I ever watched about web development were from http://thenewboston.com http://thenewboston.com. They seem kinda hokey but they were perfect for me at the time. Since then, I've really liked the railscasts from ryan bates and stackoverflow is super useful. And I use Pinterest a lot for saving links. That's why I put the "Collections" feature in sososwift. What do you use?

Looks interesting. I tried to find an RSS feed for the site to add it to my newsreader, but didn't see anything. Is there an RSS feed link somewhere that I can use?
- wuliwong 12y ago
  I hadn't even thought about that! I'll go work on it. I'm reading that making an atom feed is "better" now? I've never really used RSS, so I'm not sure. If I generated an atom feed, would that also be usable by RSS readers?
- wuliwong 12y ago
  I added an RSS link http://www.sososwift.com/?format=rss http://www.sososwift.com/?format=rss I also added a link to it in the footer and in the /about page (http://www.sososwift.com/about http://www.sososwift.com/about).

    Thank you so much! I was looking for an RSS feed as well. It's working great with Feedly. Keep up the good work!
