Tim’s Setup: What does your desk look like? He is also a self-claimed celebrity tweeter with millions of followers. By day he runs his little freelance company Made by Elephant, but by night he turns into his wild, alter ego called Maxvoltar. Like Merlin Mann said, “If linkbloggers wrote more, shovelbloggers thought more, and a-listers cited more, the web would get 15% more interesting overnight.” Also, I make sure to do my part and post a link when I do come across that 20%. Since I don’t read very many non-tech weblogs, Fever works great for me.īetween Twitter, Fever’s Hot List, and the small handful of my daily “must-reads”, I feel quite confident that I’m not missing the 20% of the most engaging content on the web. In the venn diagram of my interests and my friends’, there may be 80% overlap, but most of the content that I’m going to find deeply engaging is probably in the leftover 20% at the margins.Īlso, Alex points out how Fever really only works if you subscribe to a lot of tech-related weblogs, as these are the ones that more commonly post links leading away from their site. Perhaps it’s overestimating my ability to find interesting things to read, but I don’t trust my friends and the Internet at large to educate and entertain me. Alex Payne: The problem with abdicating your content consumption to other people, though, is other people.
