Read a Book by E-mail, a Little Each Day with Daily Lit

by Tom Johnson on Jan 11, 2007
categories: technical-writing • web-design

Daily Lit is designed for those people who spend so much time reading e-mail, blogs, and other things online that they never have enough time to read. It's really simple: You just choose a title, the frequency with which you want to read it, and your e-mail. I can see how this might become a really popular service.

By the way, I heard about Daily Lit on the Diggnation podcast. Digg is one of the best tech news sites out there — I have it set as my home page.

The Diggnation podcast consists of two tech savvy guys who talk about the most dug topics on Digg. They can really be funny sometimes -- they comment on the articles, giving their own thoughts and evaluations.

About Tom Johnson

Tom Johnson

I'm an API technical writer based in the Seattle area. On this blog, I write about topics related to technical writing and communication — such as software documentation, API documentation, AI, information architecture, content strategy, writing processes, agent skills, tech comm careers, and more. Check out my AI courses for more on the latest in AI and tech comm. If you're looking for info about documenting APIs, see my API documentation course.

If you're a technical writer and want to keep on top of the latest trends in tech comm, be sure to subscribe to email updates below. You can also learn more about me or contact me.

Finally, I want to note a couple of things. I usually write the first drafts of my posts myself and then use AI to improve accuracy, clarity, and detail in places, so my writing is a mix of human and AI. (Hopefully that's not too off-putting.) Also, the opinions I express on my blog are my own perspectives, not those of my employer.
