www.bestofbitcointalk.com to describe how the idea came about....
The idea behind Best Of BitcoinTalk popped into my head at 3 AM one morning. After browsing the BitcoinTalk.org forum for several hours that night/early morning I realized that I had spent a lot of time reading, but had absorbed very little of what was actually going on in the community.
It was then I decided that it would be great if there was some way to sift through all of the idle chatter and only read about the significant events. I thought to myself “Yeah that would be great, but how on earth could that happen?”.
I decided that there must be other people out there like me. So I thought why not review the threads myself and summarize them, give my take on them, and post them to a website? Well that sounds good, except I could probably only write 1 article a day on average. And a lot happens on the BitcoinTalk forum. Way too much for just one person to cover.
So I decided that I would have to get more people on-board. I heard a Let’s Talk Bitcoin Podcast that talked about a Bitcoin tipping widget, that allows readers to tip for content they enjoyed. Since I do not have much capital to begin with, I thought I’d kill two birds with one stone, so to speak.
I’d basically crowd-fund the website and ensure that writers write good content. The better the article, the more chance that someone will tip them!
Long story short, I started this website for those of us like me, who want To-the-point articles, on important topics without having to sift through heaps of uninformative posts.
