Some thoughts here and there.
Okay, real talk, blogging often is hard shit. We care so much about you and your time. We don’t write posts for the sake of writing posts. If we have a passionate topic, you’ll see it here. Otherwise trust we are probably just busy making something great for the citizens of the interwebs.
So today we made some key decisions about the future of our podcast feed manager. The great tool many of you have grown to love, is getting cooler.
