description: "A note on why I started Unique — a small log of delightful, unique things to make life a little more pleasant."
---
I kept losing them.
The clever little tool a friend mentioned in passing. The strange website I bookmarked at midnight and never found again. The kitchen gadget that turned out to be quietly perfect. The app that fixed something I didn't realize was broken.
I'd find something delightful, smile at it for a moment, and then watch it slip back into the internet, indistinguishable from everything else. A few weeks later I'd be half-remembering a name, half-describing a thing, opening twelve tabs to chase a feeling.
So this site is the fix. A small, slow log of things that made life a little more pleasant — products, apps, phenomena, oddities. Nothing comprehensive, nothing exhaustive. Just the ones worth keeping.
I'm building it for myself first. If it's useful to you too, that's a bonus.
Welcome.
