A few years back, I had a somewhere else chronicle on this blog, that was (almost) a daily review of interesting things I found on the internet. I did stop since it was simply a duplicate of links that I post on twitter. Nevertheless, people keep asking me to run it again. So I will try, but only on a monthly basis. It might be a bit long, with some old posts (today, there are two weeks of tweets), but again, please let me know if missed something worth reading…

Très intéressant. Puis-je te demander comment tu procèdes, concrètement? Tu rapatries tes tweets ? Tu as un doc ouvert quelque part que tu renseignes à chaque lecture ? Une autre méthode ?
J’ai un code R qui scrape tous mes tweets du mois, et qui convertit les liens pour donner le ‘vrai’ site. Le seul truc pénible, c’est les images… je fais ça à la main…
Merci !
