title: Fellow Brain Bakers
---

_Brain Baking_ never happens in isolation. This page contains a list of curious websites and fellow bloggers that deserve a shout-out. It is a nostalgic throwback to the nineties _<svg class='icon'><use xlink:href='#link'></use></svg>links_ or _blogroll_ pages, like my recently excavated [2007 browser bookmarks](/museum/fav.html). 

I've categorized these according to my own social circles. This is not a complete list. Visit [blogroll.org](https://blogroll.org/) for a superior curated list of "fine personal & independent blogs". It's a great way to get to know new people and sites.
