I know how egoistic this comment risks sounding, but: many different people (at least half a dozen) have independently expressed to me that they find the links that I post on social media to be consistently interesting and valuable, to the point of one person claiming that about 40% of the value that she got out of Facebook was from reading my posts.
Thus, if you're not already doing so, you may be interested in following me on social media, either on Facebook or Google Plus. I'm a little picky about accepting friend requests on FB, but anyone is free to follow me there. If you don't want to be on any of those services, it's apparently also possible to get an RSS feed of the G+ posts. (I also have a Twitter account, but I use that one a lot less.)
On the other hand, if you're procrastination-prone, you may want to avoid following me - I've also had two people mention that they've at least considered unfollowing me because they waste too much time reading my links.
I can confirm that you and gwern are my favourite reads on Google+ (though I don't visit neither Google+ nor Facebook very often).
I was about to post a comment that said the same!
