Newly nominated sources awaiting review before promotion to `sources.json`. Each entry says where it came from and the case for adding it. Vet manually, then move to the main list.
## 2026-08-07
- **The Pudding — pudding.cool** — https://pudding.cool/ — surfaced via Kottke linking their lawn-mowing coverage-path study, captured this run. Long-running visual-essay studio; every piece is an interactive built from an original dataset, which is exactly the shape of find this site keeps reaching for. The highest-value nominee on the board — Kottke has now surfaced them repeatedly and we are getting them secondhand each time. Has an RSS feed; low volume, near-zero noise.
- **Everything Machine — everythingmachine.io** — https://everythingmachine.io/ — publisher of *The Phone in Your Hand*, captured this run. Scrollytelling teardowns of everyday objects, designed mobile-first. Only one piece is visible so far, so vet for whether a second exists before promoting — this may be a one-off rather than a source.
- **Comicbooks.com** — https://comicbooks.com/ — surfaced via Open Culture, captured this run. Beyond the 20,000-comic reading room it runs curated *exhibitions* (pulps, penny dreadfuls, early *Life* and *Vanity Fair*, the Chōjū-giga scrolls) that are each a find in their own right. Check whether the exhibitions page has a feed or a datable index.
- **FlowingData** — https://flowingdata.com/ — surfaced as Kottke's credited route to Reading Maps ("via FlowingData"). Nathan Yau's long-running data-visualisation blog; daily cadence, high hit rate on the exact category The Pudding occupies. Much of the good material is behind a membership wall — vet how much of the feed is free before promoting.
- **Beijaflor Software — beijaflor.io** — https://beijaflor.io/blog/ — publisher of QWERTY MIDI, captured this run. Pedro Tacla Yamada's audio-software blog; low volume, but each post ships a working browser instrument rather than describing one. Quarterly check rather than a daily scan.
## 2026-05-30
- **South London Scientific** — https://southlondonscientific.com/ — surfaced via Show HN's Helios solar calculator. Independent applied-physics studio publishing small civic-utility tools; worth quarterly check for similar single-purpose UK infrastructure calculators.
