Spinning Off

I recently spun off my German series of articles called “Die illsten Links von neulich” onto its own site aswell as an English version of it called ”Distilled From The Hype”.

The reason why I am doing this is because every week I collect like 10-20 links mostly about front-end dev and sometimes just things that inspire me. After some time I review them and boil them down to the most useful/inpiring ones and post them with some commentary to add context.

If you haven’t seen it yet and you love high quality hyperlinkings of that sort, you should check it out and follow them on Twitter. Issues 003 (EN) and 007 (DE) are imminent :)

I've been writing in German on here since I started this blog. It is slowly getting more and more clear to me what this blog is about. It is about JavaScript development, frontend development and related news as well as podcasts and a tiny little bit about web startups or web companies that inspire me. In that order.

REASON Folge 1 mit Richard Metzler

REASON ist ein Experiment, eine Interviewreihe mit Web Developern (evtl. auch mit anderen Webmenschen) aus meinem Umfeld (und darüber hinaus?). Die Idee ist, das einfach mal zu machen, auf den Blog zu klatschen und zu sehen wo es hingeht und was und ob sich etwas daraus entwickelt. Feedback ist wie immer willkommen. Am besten auf Twitter.
