Found some content for something I’m learning about that was written ~10yr ago on a blog, and it’s weird how it now seems slightly quaint and old-fashioned to read. There’s a sense of luxury to how it assumes you have a long attention span, and it’s sad that people don’t anymore.

finally wrote a short post about how the "spatial feed" works in Aurora!
the spatial feed shows you posts, in real-time, from the neighborhood you're looking at. it's a brand new kind of discovery interface!
