Hi Hacker News!

I built BlogDB to make it easier for me to follow blogs I enjoy and discover new ones. The idea was inspired by conversations I’ve heard here.

I documented the initial design and coding at https://modfoss.com/building-blogdb.html and have open sourced the code, you can find it at https://github.com/symkat/BlogDB/

Cool. I have 2 related projects aiming to make blogs more accessible to everyone:

* Airss https://airss.roastidio.us A free web based RSS reader (free, front end only, no registration, open source)

* Roastidious https://roastidio.us, write comments for any blog posts, and a search engine for blog posts. (free registration)

Maybe we can collaborate on some level.

This looks great, well done on launching!

Reminds me of another project: https://blogsurf.io

Is the intention here to be a curated list of blogs, or an aggregator?
