softseed
Useful enough to recommend to several people I know who would appreciate it, and a stop at softseed added more material I will pass along too, the kind of writing that earns word of mouth is the kind that actually delivers on its promises which is what this site does without any drama or fanfare attached.
domainward
Most of the time I feel the open web is in decline and then I find a site like this, and a stop at domainward reinforced that mood lift, the cumulative effect of finding occasional excellent independent content versus the cumulative effect of finding mostly mediocre content is real for the long term reader maintaining web habits today.
