TThor - Issue 01
Quick Note
I want to thank everyone who has shown early interest and subscribed to TThor. I appreciate the support!
TThor was born out of the desire to share all the wonderful things I find on the Internet throughout the week. There is no dearth of excellent content to be found and it is impossible to read/watch/listen to it all. I hope TThor can be a useful resource to help you find some interesting and inspiring things you might have missed otherwise. This newsletter is still very much a work-in-progress so expect to see changes in the format during subsequent issues. Also note that not every link you'll find was published during the last week. This is deliberate. TThor should not be used a news resource, but rather a source of interesting content, new or old. Please enjoy :)
