Bubbles

Bubbles appeared in my analytics today and it could be a fun little project.

It seems to be a version of Hacker News for personal and those sites that are non commercial. In short, it curates a bunch of feeds from a bunch of sources (see them here) and then people can upvote on the posts they like, and over time the ones that aren’t liked are eventually hidden. It feels like a natural way to read a bunch of blogs dead quick. William Parker hit the nail on the head – “Anyone who’s ever tried to “do RSS right” knows the trap: You either miss everything or you drown in it. Bubbles sidesteps that completely.”.

The theory is that “the good stuff bubbles to the top”. At least that’s the plan. And I like it. So consider this blog post a way to support this project. Ben (the developer) want folks to keep using it, and I hope to keep doing so.

Top work!
