Starter feeds #46

I did a review of the randomStarterList code today.

Here's how it works. At startup and every hour after that, it regenerates the list.

The list it creates is a random selection of feeds from this list.

So the UI for me to add or remove something from the starters list is to add or remove it from the starters category.

I want to do something better than that. ;-)

Immediate problem -- many of them are already defunct or never update.

For example, the feed of my tweets will never update again because Elon Musk.

Maybe we should go through that list of blogs we found and pick out some good ones to go in there.

It's the kind of gesture people notice, esp bloggers.

Also reach out to people who think we'd never reach out to them.

Dropping some feeds here that I think are a definite yes. These are all updated regularly and have excellent content with a wide appeal:

Second round that I think are great, but are open for discussion:

I defer to Dave on the best general news sources to include.

How about this -- subscribe to these feeds and give them a category of "starters" -- and it's totally cool to post them here too, to get a discussion going. We have a lot of thinking to do here.

I wanted to share that I now have a category of starters that I think is pretty active, interesting, and wide-ranging: https://feedland.com/?username=cagrimmett&catname=starters
