Geeky reading list #1
I love reading and learning new things, but I don't always have time to read through long articles straight away, so I started using Readability and Pocket and lately Kippt to save these articles for later.
You see the problem is that I press the read later button a lot more ofter than actually reading anything, and I simply forget where my stuff is as there is.
I thought I'd create a list of geeky articles that I store here and will definitely read. Only geeky stuff, no kittens, travel guides or asteroids hitting the planet here.
Why here? It's all geeky, interesting stuff around JavaScript promises and CSS animations, maybe some stuff around HTML5 audio.
So here is my current geeky reading list with 10 articles:
