Show HN: A weekly curated list of links from around the web (thedialtone.com)

I really appreciate the tone end editorial choice of these selections. Strikes me as having a mix of military, intelligence, startup and code bent to it -- maybe that's just my reading, but it suits me. And there's not just "1 page of links" there's a whole 20. I actually went looking for a subscribe button. But it's sort of ... better ... I guess from a product point of view that you don't have one...because, you know, when people feel that resistance in the course of achieving their goal, they want it more. I thought...I'm gonna come back and check this. Being an active participant...somehow makes a product I already want even more desirable...than just being a passive consumer.

And starting each one of with a great quote is a really interesting idea. It gets my mind thinking -- and then makes me more receptive or interested in the links.

Anyway, thanks for sharing! I look forward to it continuing.


Thanks for great feedback!


Like the minimal look and the first set of links. You should add a newsletter where you send these links to the list subscribers. Not sure how many users would bookmark and keep returning every week to check, with the amount of curation sites available these days.


Thanks for great feedback! I am looking into the newsletter idea.
