I always end up reading what seems interesting though which often lends itself towards more recent books. I have re-read my Brandon Sanderson collection a few times. I

    Peter McKinnon has a good video executing content. I’ve fallen into this over the last few months, stopped making content then kept finding reasons to not make content. I’m trying to set aside time every Friday to get a video out the door.

    by

    Fionn is a band out of White Rock BC. I found out about them near the end of last week when YouTube recommended their cover of Toxicity. While I try to pick a favourite album from an artist I just can’t. Both the albums available on YouTube music have multiple tracks I love. Unfortunately they

    Yes Omnivore is gone so today we’re going to take a look at 3 other options for saving articles to read later. My biggest issue with all of them is how poorly they handle YouTube content. If you’ve got other options I should look at I’d love to hear about them.

  • A Reminder How my Interests Change

    by

    I’m reorganizing my Obsidian notes a bit, specifically the notes that correspond with ideas to write/YouTube about and came across one from Barking Up the Wrong Tree about networking.
