Goodreads Import
meta, goodreads
Heads-up: I’ve imported all the reviews I’ve written on Goodreads to this site. There’s been a fair number of them so if they broke your RSS feed, I apologise.
I’ve tried to do it in a way where that doesn’t happen, but it’s still a bit of a mystery to me and I suspect that different clients and providers behave differently. Most importantly, I couldn’t figure out a good way of knowing ahead of time.
Turns out Goodreads managed to collect a fair bit of my writing over the years. And since websites come and go — or worse lock out the user-generated content that made them possible — I’d like to have all my writing in one place that I control.
These new posts are dated with the time I wrote them. I’ve also added categories to this site so you can see on the post as well as the index whether it’s a book review, import from goodreads, programming-related etc.
Overall, the writing is a bit rough. The reviews I put on Goodreads were only lightly checked for typos and glaring errors.
Going forward, any review I publish on Goodreads will appear here as well.
