Link bots and stuff

People on IRC often mention the fact that I often appear to be a automated RSS feed bot. Sometimes you may stop being a troll and wonder where I get all these totally amazing (!) links from. (Let’s face it, I don’t link crap).

This is my secret recipe/magic formula/what have you:

  1. Reddit.
    You aren't missing much, its r/linux.

    The subreddit I absolutely despise but can’t stay away from. (Stupidity is amusing.)

    Gems among the trash and what not. Some that I found today:

     

  2. Fever.
    Whee, world news!

    Whee, world news!

    I recently bought a license for Fever as a replacement for Google Reader and it has been working out great.

    And yes I have more awesome links:

That is it folks (Well, there is the URL buffer in my IRC client, but I’d rather not look in there knowing the stuff fox links to [no, I'm not linking to an example!]).

P.S – Link posts are totally awesome.

New Year, New Beginnings

Here we go again. I decided to archive the old AT and start over fresh. Yes, I went back to WordPress. Yes, I know how much it sucks, how much PHP sucks, etcetera. Few things I’m doing different from last time:

  • WordPress is installed and updated from SVN. I’m not letting it update itself.
  • No unnecessary plugins installed.
  • Comments are disabled. If you really really need to give me your opinion on a post, please hit me up on Twitter.
  • No multiuser usage this time. Thanks to everyone who wrote for the old AT but for now I have decided to keep this blog strictly me.

Here is to another eventful year, filled with posts about everything and nothing.
