Dear readers of the future: The linked site (tragically) no longer exists, and the twitter account has been superceded by @harrybr (which was alive at least through October 2012 when I posted this).

Dear author of the past: Please note the state of the site above the article’s body to save other readers the precious seconds I wasted having my hopes dashed. :-P

That’s great. Thank you. Now if only there were time enough to look at everything!

Collected.info looks good, thanks for the pointer Natalie! uxurls.com is hosted on a very cheap Dreamhost plan, nothing fancy.

Nice site, I like the idea. Did you use the hosted version of WordPress or the full version? You might be interested in http://www.collected.info. It provides a service that does something similar, though with less control over design. Great to get a window into some UX blogs I hadn’t seen before – I appreciate you sharing what you did!

It’s all visible if you view source – wordpress etc, quite easy really!

Would you care to share how one goes about building a site like this?

Nice one!

Talking about the OPML, maybe you could link that in the footer, so we could download it into our readers?

You should have seen the original opml file – only about 1 in 4 made it through! Point taken though, it’s definitely not for everyone :)

I think you’re better off restricting this to the sites you personally rate, Harry, rather than opening it up to anyone who maintains a user experience blog. These things are much more valuable when they are firmly edited — quantity can be the enemy of quality. Even “just” having 130 sites makes the page a challenge to scan read.

Nice, Harry! Reblogged it at Konigi.
