Key findings -- all-time data
What a decade reveals
🏆
Web3 was 20% of a decade6,630 links across nft/crypto channels. The biggest single-era obsession in the archive -- and now almost entirely dead.
🧠
Culture beat AI across the whole decade6,332 vs 4,820 links. Culture is the constant. AI is the recent surge.
📡
Twitter/X: 8,744 links across the decadeLinkedIn: 4,080. Social accounts for 38% of everything -- more than any single topic category.
📈
2021 was the peak year: 6,559 linksNearly double 2020. Then it fell -- not because the habit died, but because the nature of what I was reading changed.
🧬
Wednesday beats Sunday by 43%5,687 vs 3,973 links all-time. Peak hour: 11pm (2,677 links). The thinking happens late and midweek.

🧠
A live map of your intellectual lifeFrom Web3 (2021–22) to AI-native products (2025–26). Not a tool -- an archive.
📡
You curate before you build#cultural-interface is #1 and it's culture -- not AI, not products. Signals come first, execution follows.
🐦
Twitter/X is your primary research tool8,744 links from X across the decade -- one in four of everything saved. Twitter/X + LinkedIn = 38% of the entire archive.
🔁
AI is a practice, not just a topic#claude-code at #3 -- you log your AI work in real time. That's a case study waiting to be written.
📰
The content is already here20,819 non-social links across 474 channels = a newsletter, a blog, a deck. You don't need to research -- just extract.
