How did you come to find LessWrong?

Orion's Arm -> Kurzweil -> Singularity Institute -> Overcoming Bias -> Less Wrong

I found out about Orion's Arm (forgot how), checked out their links, references and book recommendations, learnt about Kurzweil and came across a link to the Singularity Institute. I believe there was a link to Overcoming Bias on the SI blog which later turned into LW. I then pretty much ignored OB (later LW) until 2010 (reason: lots of incredibly boring posts about rationality ;-).
