We know, "no idea is a bad idea," but brainstorming is often unsuccessful. These prompts actually work. They could even lead to a unique business model.

Congrats to @marco on the new Overcast redesign. I’ve been using the beta and it’s a really nice update.
Following up the new bookmarks improvements with more changes today: added Pinboard import and fixed some other problems. Thanks to folks who have upgraded to Micro.blog Premium to take full advantage of bookmark archiving, highlights, and search! That helps us make it better.
The last time I was here (Wright Bros Brew & Brew), you could park across the street because it was just a dirt parking lot next to the train tracks. Now it’s a Whole Foods and Target. ☕️

I’m reading through Mozilla’s vision for the evolution of the web. On web sites being too difficult to create:
Building websites has gotten substantially easier in many ways, but it’s also become more complex, and there remain a number of pain points which make the experience more difficult than it needs to be. This has several negative consequences. First, it disempowers site authors by hampering their ability to express themselves. Second, it drives content to native app platforms, which diminishes the Web’s reach. Finally, it encourages centralization by tilting the playing field towards large publishers and platform providers with sophisticated engineering teams and complex infrastructure. Our goal is to reverse these trends by making it easier to build and maintain sites.
There is a lot of good stuff in this document.
