Justin Searls has a web site
My name is Justin Searls, and I'm an unprofessional programmer. You might know me for co-founding Test Double, my smattering of open source tools, or from any of a dozen places where my face looks like this:
justin.searls.co is my preferred venue for dishing takes on the Internet, so you've come to the right place. This website is easiest to think of as blog, but it's just as much a repository of various kinds of ✨multimedia✨. Everything I make is organized into finely-sliced sections, with each specially-formatted to feature a different sort of thing:
- Posts - Traditional blog posts
- Casts - Episodes of my podcast
- Links - Links to other websites with pull-quotes and commentary added
- Shots - Photos and images
- Takes - Tweet-length posts
- Tubes - Embeds of my YouTube videos
- Clips - Self-hosted short-form videos
- Spots - Places I've visited
- Slops - AI-generated content
- Mails - Archives of my Searls of Wisdom newsletter
You can subscribe to everything I create wherever you like, because this site is syndicated by an app I built called POSSE Party:
- If you're old like me, you can subscribe directly to one of the site's Atom/RSS feeds
- The main feed is mirrored on Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, and X
- My Shots and Clips are cross-posted to Instagram
- My Clips & Tubes are available on YouTube
Feel free to follow, subscribe, like, or whatever verb your preferred platforms deal in.
I also put out a podcast called Breaking Change and a monthly newsletter called Searls of Wisdom.
