To be honest I'm not sure if Twitter did more harm to me than good — there were periods when it serious damaged my mental health. But this year for some reason I've found it really useful when it comes to breaking news — not so much informing me of news, but giving me the ability to confirm that a) something actually happened and b) I've interpreted it correctly. I'll miss that, particularly for news from non-English-speaking parts of the world. As a social space I won't miss it at all.

I'm still not sure how easy it will be to add newsletter feeds here — I really do prefer being able to read essays and blog-style writing in one single place, so if I can get it to work it would make my life a lot easier. I haven't had time to set things up, but I hope you've managed it.
