Lol guess I’m “famous”.
I’m curious how many of these websites are active, any idea?
I really only post on https://austingwalters.com but have all my side projects listed

I hang out here way too much and still recognize <10% of profiles listed (:
I hang out here a lot too but not in all the discussions. If someone participates only or mainly in stories about VC fundings and such I may never see his or her name, while I'll probably see the name of someone who participates less but does so in technical discussions more :).
I'm on the list, I'd be surprised if anyone recognised my username who didn't know me from elsewhere.
I do recognise a good chunk of the top 30 or so names though
I was thinking it would be nice to see when the user last posted, along with their karma. I see a lot of names I recognise but haven’t seen around for a while.
Would be interesting to run a crawler against them that looks for Atom/RSS feed links like these:
And then fetches the feed to see when the most recent post is.
So like, http://Planet.Famous.News.Ycombinator.com, as this idea would have been known in 2007?
Now I’m regretting not having my entirely inactive blog linked from my profile. Opportunities missed.
I guess that was my problem too. I’ve been writing a lot lately though.
Added to the profile now. Maybe they get me next time.
Or my homepage do I could get spammed by robots :)
If at least one site was active, I included all the sites scraped from the bio.
