If you have trouble keeping up with everything that’s happening in the Genesis WordPress community, you might be interested in a new site created by Andrea Whitmer called The Dailybolt. The Dailybolt publishes excerpts from sites that routinely write about the Genesis Framework by StudioPress. It’s powered by WordPress and uses the Whitespace Pro theme.
The site allows Whitmer to conveniently read material mostly devoted to Genesis without having to use social media or a Feedreader. “Yes, I know how RSS works, but I subscribe to a lot of blogs in several different niches. I kept thinking it would be awesome to have a way to access the latest Genesis tutorials or articles without hunting them down on social media or in my RSS reader,” Whitmer said.
I asked Whitmer if she plans to manually curate articles so the site contains more content dedicated to Genesis, “I created the site after polling my mailing list several months ago and they seemed interested in all the content coming from the community. So as of right now, I don’t plan to cull the other posts. However, I may remove some sites if they consistently publish articles about non-Genesis topics.”
You can subscribe to the site via RSS or email. Those who subscribe by email will receive a daily digest of headlines. Aside from being a cool domain, it’s a convenient way to keep tabs on the Genesis WordPress community which has become a cottage industry. Are there any sites you’d like to see added to The Dailybolt? Give us a link in the comments.
Thanks for the mention, Jeff! Hopefully the site will benefit others who follow Genesis news. Definitely interested in adding any sites or feeds I might have missed. :)
