I just scheduled the latest edition of the newsletter, issue #166.
I feel like it has a somewhat different vibe than usual. Still with an awesome selection of really great podcasts. Perhaps just a sign of the times. See what you think.
Out in around 3 hours time :)
The second release of the everything page:
markjgsmith.com/every…
Fixed bug where not all blog posts weren’t being added.
It displays all content types interleaved, reverse-chronological by day, chronological by item.
Probably going to update it to display links separately.
Build minutes reset, I’m publishing again!
Loads of new content on the website, here’s the latest page:
